The amino acid sequence of Escherichia coli cyanase.

The amino acid sequence of elongation factor Tu of Escherichia coli. The complete sequence.

The complete amino acid sequence of elongation factor Tu of Escherichia coli has been established by sequencing overlapping cyanogen bromide and tryptic peptides. Sequence analysis of peptides was done primarily by solid-phase Edman degradation. Elongation factor Tu is a single chain polypeptide composed of 393 amino acids (Mr = 43,225). Its NH2 terminus is blocked with an acetyl group, as dete...

The amino acid pool in Escherichia coli.

Amino acid sequence of Escherichia coli glutamine synthetase deduced from the DNA nucleotide sequence.

Glutamine synthetase is encoded by the glnA gene of Escherichia coli and catalyzes the formation of glutamine from ATP, glutamate, and ammonia. A 1922-base pair fragment from a cDNA containing the glnA structural gene for E. coli glutamine synthetase has been sequenced. An open reading frame of 1404 base pairs encodes a protein of 468 amino acid residues with a calculated molecular weight of 51...

Amino acid sequence around lipoic acid residues in the pyruvate dehydrogenase multienzyme complex of Escherichia coli.

Amino-acid sequences around two lipoic acid residues in the lipoate acetyltransferase component of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex of Escherichia coli were investigated. A single amino acid sequence of 13 residues was found. A repeated amino acid sequence in the lipoate acetyltransferase chain might explain this result.

Nucleotide sequence of Escherichia coli purF and deduced amino acid sequence of glutamine phosphoribosylpyrophosphate amidotransferase.

The Escherichia coli gene purF, coding for 5-phosphoribosylamine:glutamine pyrophosphate phosphoribosyltransferase (amidophosphoribosyltransferase) was subcloned from a ColE1-purF plasmid into pBR322. Amidophosphoribosyltransferase levels were elevated more than 5-fold in the ColE1-purF plasmid-bearing strain compared to the wild type control, and a further 10- to 13-fold elevation was observed...
