Purification and properties of a bacteriophage T5-modified form of Escherichia coli RNA polymerase.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A modified form of Escherichia coli RNA polymerase that contains one of the three T5-specific polypeptides known to interact with the host enzyme was purified from bacteriophage T5-infected cells. The properties of this T5-modified enzyme appeared identical to those of the RNA polymerase derived from uninfected non-colicinogenic cells and to a fully active enzyme isolated from T5-infected ColIb+ cells after the limited in vivo transcription of T5 genes allowed by the plasmid had ceased.

The Over-Expression of Biologically Active Human Growth Hormone in a T5-Based System in Escherichia coli, Studying Temperature Effect
We studied the expression of human growth hormone (hGH) in E. coli under a bacteriophage T5-base promoter in a pQE30 expression vector. For an efficient expression of hGH cDNA, a number of codons at the hGH N-terminal coding region were altered based on the E. coli major codons. An over-expression of hGH in the bacteria, carrying the recombinant plasmids, was observed at 37°C in the presence of...

The human granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulation factor (hGM-CSF) gene was cloned in the pET 23a( +) expression vector under the control of strong bacteriophage T7 transcription and translation signals. The hGM-CSF gene was transferred into E. coli strainBL21 (DE3)pLysS andIPTG was used for induction of GM-CSF gene. Production of the target protein was obtained as revealed by ELISA and ...

In this study, 90 internal organ samples of poultry with symptoms of colibacillosis were obtained from Maragheh poultry farms in East Azerbaijan, Iran. In total, 70 bacterial isolates were confirmed as Escherichia coli (E. coli) strains using standard biochemical tests, and antibiotic sensitivity was determined by the disk diffusion method. Antibiotics used in this study included ampicillin, pe...
متن کاملPurification and properties of the Escherichia coli deoxyribonucleic acid-unwinding protein. Effects on deoxyribonucleic acid synthesis in vitro.
The DNA-unwinding protein from Escherichia coli has been purified to homogeneity. It is a single polypeptide of 22,000 daltons; the native molecular weight is 90,000. The effect of the protein on the activity of the three DNA polymerases of E. coli has been studied. The activities of DNA polymerases I and III are significantly reduced, whereas DNA polymerase II activity is enhanced in the prese...
متن کاملPurification and properties of a T4 bacteriophage factor that modifies valyl-tRNA synthetase of Escherichia coli.
After T4 bacteriophage infects Escherichia coli, a peptide tau, produced under the control of a phage gene, binds to the host valyl transfer ribonucleic acid synthetase (EC 6.1.1.9) and thereby changes several of its physicochemical properties. The interaction of tau with the host enzyme was investigated in vitro after extensively purifying the factor from T4-infected E. coli using a rapid puri...
