Synergistic activation of transcription by Escherichia coli cAMP receptor protein.
Activation of gene expression in eukaryotes generally involves the action of multiple transcription factors that function synergistically when bound near a particular target gene. Such effects have been suggested to occur because multiple activators can interact simultaneously with one or more components of the basal transcription machinery. In prokaryotes, examples of synergistic effects on tr...
متن کاملThe cAMP receptor protein CRP can function as an osmoregulator of transcription in Escherichia coli.
Transcription of the P1 promoter of the Escherichia coli proP gene, which encodes a transporter of osmoprotectants, is strongly induced by a shift to hyperosmotic media. Unlike most other osmotically regulated promoters, the induction occurs for a brief period of time, corresponding to the replacement of intracellular K(+) glutamate with osmoprotecting compounds. This burst of proP transcriptio...
متن کاملRegulation of penicillin G acylase gene expression in Escherichia coli by repressor PaaX and the cAMP-cAMP receptor protein complex.
The pga gene of Escherichia coli W ATCC11105 encodes a penicillin G acylase whose expression is regulated at both the transcriptional and post-transcriptional level. In this work we have shown that PaaX is the repressor of pga expression, and we have identified its binding consensus as TGATTC(N27)GAATCA. We conclude that the process of "PAA induction" actually involves relief of pga from repres...
متن کاملPositive and negative transcriptional regulation of the Escherichia coli gluconate regulon gene gntT by GntR and the cyclic AMP (cAMP)-cAMP receptor protein complex.
The gntT gene of Escherichia coli is specifically induced by gluconate and repressed via catabolite repression. Thus, gluconate is both an inducer and a repressor of gntT expression since gluconate is a catabolite-repressing sugar. In a gntR deletion mutant, the expression of a chromosomal gntT::lacZ fusion is both high and constitutive, confirming that GntR is the negative regulator of gntT. I...
متن کاملCyclic AMP (cAMP) and cAMP receptor protein influence both synthesis and uptake of extracellular autoinducer 2 in Escherichia coli.
Bacterial autoinducer 2 (AI-2) is proposed to be an interspecies mediator of cell-cell communication that enables cells to operate at the multicellular level. Many environmental stimuli have been shown to affect the extracellular AI-2 levels, carbon sources being among the most important. In this report, we show that both AI-2 synthesis and uptake in Escherichia coli are subject to catabolite r...
