Characterization of translational initiation sites in E. coli.

چکیده
We characterize the Shine and Dalgarno sequence of 124 known gene beginnings. This information is used to make "rules" which help distinguish gene beginning from other sites in a library of over 78,000 bases of mRNA. Gene beginnings are found to have information besides the initiation codon and Shine and Dalgarno sequence which can be used to make better "rules".

Enhancement of translational efficiency by the Escherichia coli atpE translational initiation region: its fusion with two human genes.
The cDNA sequences encoding mature human interleukin 2 (IL2) and beta-interferon (INF beta), respectively, were fused with various translational initiation regions and inserted into two different types of expression vector. The relative levels of expression of the two genes and the functional stability of their respective mRNAs were examined in vivo in Escherichia coli hosts. The addition of th...
متن کاملPrevalence and molecular characterization of verotoxin-producing Escherichia coli O157:H7 in cattle and sheep in Shiraz-Iran
Shiga toxin producing Escherichia coli have been associated with HUS, HC and TTP in human. We found recto-anal mucosal sample in sheep as well in cattle is the main site for E. coli O157 localization. 1246 E. coli isolates from 872 both healthy and diarrheic animals were analyzed, by screening for the presence of Shiga toxin-producing (VT 1 and VT 2) and intimin (eae) genes used Multiplex PCR. ...
متن کاملDevelopmental expression of three proteins from the first gene of the RNA polymerase sigma 43 operon of Bacillus subtilis.
The first gene of the Bacillus subtilis RNA polymerase sigma 43 operon, P23, has a protein-coding capacity of 23,000 daltons. Sequence analysis revealed three potential translational initiation sites within the same reading frame, which could encode proteins of 23,000 (P23), 19,000 (P19), and 9,000 (P9) daltons, respectively. An internal promoter (P3), which is expressed only during the sporula...
متن کاملTranslational autocontrol of the Escherichia coli hfq RNA chaperone gene.
The conserved bacterial RNA chaperone Hfq has been shown to play an important role in post-transcriptional regulation. Here, we demonstrate that Hfq synthesis is autoregulated at the translational level. We have mapped two Hfq binding sites in the 5'-untranslated region of hfq mRNA and show that Hfq binding inhibits formation of the translation initiation complex. In vitro translation and in vi...
متن کاملPrevalence, Antimicrobial Resistance, and Molecular Characterization of Escherichia coli Isolated from Food Contact Surfaces in Seafood Pre-Processing Plants (India)
Background: The survival of pathogens in biofilms poses a threat to food safety. The aim of this study was to determine prevalence, antimicrobial resistance, and molecular characterization of Escherichia coli strains. Methods: Swab samples (n=144) were collected from biofilm formed on food contact surfaces in seafood pre-processing plant in India. E. coli was isolated and identified using uid ...
