Postexponential regulation of sin operon expression in Bacillus subtilis.
The expression of many gene products required during the early stages of Bacillus subtilis sporulation is regulated by sinIR operon proteins. Transcription of sinIR from the P1 promoter is induced at the end of exponential growth. In vivo transcription studies suggest that P1 induction is repressed by the transition-state regulatory protein Hpr and is induced by the phosphorylated form of Spo0A...
متن کاملSequence organization and regulation of the Bacillus subtilis menBE operon.
Menaquinone (MK) plays a central role in the respiratory chain of Bacillus subtilis. The biosynthesis of MK requires the formation of a naphthoquinone ring via a series of specific reactions branching from the shikimate pathway. "Early" MK-specific reactions catalyze the formation of o-succinylbenzoate (OSB) from isochorismate, and "late" reactions convert OSB to dihydroxynaphthoate, by utilizi...
متن کاملAutogenous regulation of the Bacillus subtilis glnRA operon.
Purified Bacillus subtilis GlnR was shown to bind with high affinity to a specific region that overlaps with the glnRA promoter site. The GlnR binding site includes four copies of a repeated sequence that may be the recognition site for the protein. GlnR inhibited transcription from the glnRA promoter in vitro.
متن کاملTranscriptional regulation of the phoPR operon in Bacillus subtilis.
When Bacillus subtilis is subjected to phosphate starvation, the Pho regulon is activated by the PhoP-PhoR two-component signal transduction system to elicit specific responses to this nutrient limitation. The response regulator, PhoP, and its cognate histidine sensor kinase, PhoR, are encoded by the phoPR operon that is transcribed as a 2.7-kb bicistronic mRNA. The phoPR operon is transcribed ...
متن کاملFunctional dissection of the Bacillus subtilis pur operator site.
Bacillus subtilis PurR represses transcription of several genes involved in purine synthesis, metabolism, and transport and cofactor synthesis. PurR binds specifically to DNAs containing an inverted repeat of a 14-nucleotide "PurBox" located in the upstream control regions of genes in the PurR regulon. Further biochemical investigation of the interaction of PurR with a series of shortened upstr...
