Nucleotide sequence of the Bacillus subtilis phoR gene.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The nucleotide sequence of phoR, the positive and negative regulatory gene for alkaline phosphatase and phosphodiesterase formation in Bacillus subtilis, was determined. The sequence data predicted an open reading frame of 1,740 base pairs (579 amino acids) which overlaps the 5 base pairs of the preceding phoP coding sequence. The deduced amino acid sequence was significantly homologous with that of the Escherichia coli phoR gene product, which is the sensory element for the pho regulon.

متن کاملRegulatory interactions between the Pho and sigma(B)-dependent general stress regulons of Bacillus subtilis.
When Bacillus subtilis is subjected to phosphate starvation, the Pho and sigma(B)-dependent general stress regulons are activated to elicit, respectively, specific and non-specific responses to this nutrient-limitation stress. A set of isogenic mutants, with a beta-galactosidase reporter gene transcriptionally fused to the inactivated target gene, was used to identify genes of unknown function ...
متن کاملPhoR/PhoP two component regulatory system affects biocontrol capability of Bacillus subtilis NCD-2
The Bacillus subtilis strain NCD-2 is an important biocontrol agent against cotton verticillium wilt and cotton sore shin in the field, which are caused by Verticillium dahliae Kleb and Rhizoctonia solani Kuhn, respectively. A mutant of strain NCD-2, designated M216, with decreased antagonism to V. dahliae and R. solani, was selected by mini-Tn10 mutagenesis and in vitro virulence screening. Th...
متن کاملPhosphate control of the biosynthesis of antibiotics and other secondary metabolites is mediated by the PhoR-PhoP system: an unfinished story.
The biosynthesis of many different types of antibiotics and other secondary metabolites is regulated by phosphate. Production of these valuable compounds occurs only under phosphate-limiting nutritional conditions. In a few cases, there is evidence showing that the negative phosphate control is exerted at the transcriptional level. Recently, it was shown that phosphate control of antibiotic bio...
متن کاملInfluence of Bacillus subtilis phoR on cell wall anionic polymers.
In Bacillus subtilis the Pho regulon is controlled by a sensor and regulator protein pair, PhoR and PhoP, that respond to phosphate concentrations. To facilitate studies of the Pho regulon, a strain with an altered PhoR protein was isolated by in vitro mutagenesis. The mutation in this strain (phoR12) leads to the production of a PhoR sensor kinase that, unlike the wild-type, is functionally ac...
