Deoxyribonucleic acid-ribonucleic acid hybridization studies on the L-Arabinose operon of Escherichia coli B-r.

چکیده
An increase in the rate of synthesis of ara-specific messenger ribonucleic acid as measured by deoxyribonucleic acid-ribonucleic acid hybridization has been detected in the induced wild-type (ara(+)) strain of Escherichia coli B/r as compared with the uninduced control, thus providing evidence that regulation of the positively controlled l-arabinose operon is at the level of transcription.

Arabinose-leucine deletion mutants of Escherichia coli B-r.
The control of ara gene expression was studied in mutants of Escherichia coli B/r containing deletions which fused the l-arabinose gene complex with the leucine operon (the normal gene order being araDABIOC...leuDCBAO). Complementation experiments with stable merodiploids showed that expression of ara genes cis to araC-leu deletions was controlled by the trans-acting product of the araC gene. E...
متن کاملRequirement of adenosine-3',5'-cyclic monophosphate for L-arabinose isomerase synthesis in Escherichia coli.
Adenosine-3', 5'-cyclic monophosphate (cyclic AMP) is essential for the synthesis of l-arabinose isomerase in Escherichia coli. Cyclic AMP appears to be required for the transcription of deoxyribonucleic acid into messenger ribonucleic acid (RNA), since the enzyme synthesis is not observed in induced cells to which cyclic AMP is added after messenger RNA synthesis is arrested by rifampin or aft...
متن کاملInduction kinetics of the L-arabinose operon of Escherichia coli.
After addition of l-arabinose to growing Escherichia coli, the l-ribulokinase (EC 2.7.1.16) and l-arabinose isomerase (EC 5.3.1.4) first appear at about 0.7 and 1.4 min, respectively. These times are consistent with the distances of the genes from the ribonucleic acid polymerase initiation site in the operon. The kinetics of appearance of these enzymes as well as those of beta-galactosidase (EC...
متن کاملAsymmetry and extent of in vivo transcripition of R-plasmid deoxyribonucleic acid in Escherichia coli.
Deoxyribonucleic acid-ribonucleic acid (DNA-RNA) hybridization studies have been performed with R-plasmid DNA (R538-1drd) and in vivo-synthesized RNA. R-plasmid DNA was isolated from Escherichia coli K-12, and the complementary strands were separated in cesium chloride-polyuridylic acid-polyguanylic acid gradients. DNA-RNA hybridization was performed with the separated DNA strands and RNA purif...
متن کاملPatterns of polarity in the Escherichia coli car AB gene cluster.
The direction of transcription of the carAB gene cluster, which codes for Escherichia coli carbamoylphosphate synthase, was deduced from the effects of phage Mu-1 insertions in each of the two genes and from the results of ribonucleic acid-deoxyribonucleic acid hybridization experiments relating the quantity of car messenger ribonucleic acid to the location of various car mutations. The car loc...
