The Escherichia coli ynfEFGHI operon encodes polypeptides which are paralogues of dimethyl sulfoxide reductase (DmsABC).
The ynfEFGHI operon is a paralogue of the Escherichia coli dmsABC operon. ynfE and ynfF are paralogues of dmsA. ynfG and ynfH are paralogues of dmsB and dmsC, respectively. YnfI (dmsD) has no dms paralogue. YnfE/F and YnfG could be detected by immunoblotting with anti-DmsAB antibodies when expressed under the control of a tac or dms promoter. Cells harbouring ynfFGH on a multicopy plasmid suppo...
متن کاملNac-mediated repression of the serA promoter of Escherichia coli.
Escherichia coli and related bacteria contain two paralogous PII-like proteins involved in nitrogen regulation, the glnB product, PII, and the glnK product, GlnK. Previous studies have shown that cells lacking both PII and GlnK have a severe growth defect on minimal media, resulting from elevated expression of the Ntr regulon. Here, we show that this growth defect is caused by activity of the n...
متن کاملCloning and expression of rhl AB operon under the control of tac promoter in E. coli
Today, efforts go towards the replacement of chemical surfactants by natural biological biosurfactants (biosurfactant), as these materials are not carcinogenic and highly compatibile with the environment. One of the main classes of biosurfactants is rhamnose containing glycolipid biosurfactant (rhamnolipids). This type of biosurfactants can be applied in many industries such as oil industry, ph...
متن کاملRepression of the aroP gene of Escherichia coli involves activation of a divergent promoter.
The repression of aroP expression which is mediated by the TyrR protein with phenylalanine, tyrosine, or tryptophan has been shown to be primarily a direct result of TyrR-mediated activation of a divergent promoter, P3, which directs the RNA polymerase away from promoter P1. Evidence which has been presented to support this conclusion is as follows. Repression of P1 does not occur either in vit...
متن کاملRegulation of galactose operon at the gal operator-promoter region in Escherichia coli K-12.
The capR (lon) product controls expression of the gal operon independently of the galR repressor. Previously, mutations of the gal operon have been isolated that are semiconstitutive and alter response to the capR and/or capT product. Such mutants imply the existence of a distinct site in the operon that responds to capR (capT) control. This mutation could be either in a site near the operator-...
