Deletion of the Escherichia coli crp gene.
Spontaneous crp mutants Escherichia coli were selected from a strain that does not require 3',5'-cyclic adenosine monophosphate for CAP activity. Several deletions of the crp gene were characterized. The crp gene was not essential for growth of E. coli. crp mutations reduced the donor ability of Hfr strains.
متن کاملTranscriptional terminator is a positive regulatory element in the expression of the Escherichia coli crp gene.
Plasmids were constructed that contain deletions in the stem region of the presumed rho-independent terminator of the cloned crp gene of Escherichia coli. The level of cyclic AMP binding activity and the amount of CRP in cells harboring the deletion plasmids were found to be significantly lower than those in cells harboring the wild-type crp plasmid. Quantitative S1 assays indicated that the st...
متن کاملCloning of Clostridium perfringens iota toxin gene in Escherichia coli
Iota toxin is produced by Clostridium perfringens type E. This toxin causes antibiotic-associated enterotoxemia in lambs and calves. Iota toxin is a binary toxin that has two components including Ia (the enzyme component) and Ib (the binding component). Ib binds to the surface receptor of target cells and translocate Ia into the cytosol of cells. The aim of this study was to clone toxigenic epi...
متن کاملTranscriptome analysis of Crp-dependent catabolite control of gene expression in Escherichia coli.
We report here the transcriptome analyses of highly expressed genes that are subject to catabolite repression or activation mediated by the cyclic AMP receptor protein (Crp). The results reveal that many operons encoding enzymes of central carbon metabolic pathways (e.g., Krebs cycle enzymes), as well as transporters and enzymes that initiate carbon metabolism, are subject to direct Crp-mediate...
متن کاملTranscriptional effects of CRP* expression in Escherichia coli
BACKGROUND Escherichia coli exhibits diauxic growth in sugar mixtures due to CRP-mediated catabolite repression and inducer exclusion related to phosphotransferase system enzyme activity. Replacement of the native crp gene with a catabolite repression mutant (referred to as crp*) enables co-utilization of glucose and other sugars in E. coli. While previous studies have examined the effects of e...
