Sigma factor-anti-sigma factor interaction in alginate synthesis: inhibition of AlgT by MucA.
Conversion from the nonmucoid to the mucoid phenotype is a typical feature of Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains causing chronic pulmonary infections in cystic fibrosis patients. One of the key genetic controls in this conversion to mucoidy is from the algT(U)-mucA-mucB(algN) locus, located at 67.5 min on the standard P. aeruginosa chromosomal map. The algT gene promotes conversion to mucoidy and e...
متن کاملStudy of the bldG locus suggests that an anti-anti-sigma factor and an anti-sigma factor may be involved in Streptomyces coelicolor antibiotic production and sporulation.
A cloned 2.5 kb DNA fragment that can restore antibiotic production and sporulation to a bldG mutant encodes a 113 aa protein showing similarity to a family of anti-anti-sigma factors from Bacillus and Staphylococcus; and the deduced product of a closely spaced downstream ORF, designated ORF3, shows similarity to cognate anti-sigma factors. The homologues in Bacillus regulate the activity of sp...
متن کاملAn alternative sigma factor governs the principal sigma factor in Streptomyces griseus.
In bacteria, the RNA polymerase holoenzyme comprises a five-subunit core enzyme and a dissociable subunit, sigma factor, which is responsible for transcriptional initiation. The filamentous bacterium Streptomyces griseus has 52 sigma factors, including one essential 'principal' sigma factor (σ(HrdB) ) that is responsible for the transcription of housekeeping genes. Here we characterized an alte...
متن کاملThe anti-anti-sigma factor BldG is involved in activation of the stress response sigma factor σ(H) in Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2).
The alternative stress response sigma factor σ(H) has a role in regulation of the osmotic stress response and in morphological differentiation in Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2). Its gene, sigH, is located in an operon with the gene that encodes its anti-sigma factor UshX (PrsH). However, no gene with similarity to an anti-anti-sigma factor which may have a role in σ(H) activation by a "partner-s...
متن کاملIdentification and Characterization of the Cognate Anti-Sigma Factor and Specific Promoter Elements of a T. tengcongensis ECF Sigma Factor
Extracytoplasmic function (ECF) σ factors, the largest group of alternative σ factors, play important roles in response to environmental stresses. Tt-RpoE1 is annotated as an ECF σ factor in Thermoanaerobacter tengcongensis. In this study, we revealed that the Tt-tolB gene located downstream of the Tt-rpoE1 gene encoded the cognate anti-σ factor, which could inhibit the transcription activity o...
