Integration of signals through Crc and PtsN in catabolite repression of Pseudomonas putida TOL plasmid pWW0.
Toluene degradation in Pseudomonas putida KT2440 pWW0 plasmid is subjected to catabolite repression. Pu and P(S1) promoters of the pWW0 TOL plasmid are down-regulated in vivo during exponential growth in rich medium. In cells growing on minimal medium, yeast extract (YE) addition mimics exponential-phase rich medium repression of these promoters. We have constructed and tested mutants in a seri...
متن کاملNucleotide sequence of xylE from the TOL pDK1 plasmid and structural comparison with isofunctional catechol-2,3-dioxygenase genes from TOL, pWW0 and NAH7.
Detailed restriction and nucleotide sequence analysis of the Pseudomonas putida TOL plasmid pDK1 xylE gene revealed significant homology with isofunctional xylE (81.5%) and nahH (78.0%) genes from the TOL pWW0 and NAH7 plasmids. The highest degrees of nucleotide and apparent amino acid conservation (82.2 and 86.4%, respectively) among all three genes were found to exist within a region comprisi...
متن کاملThe TOL plasmid pWW0 xylN gene product from Pseudomonas putida is involved in m-xylene uptake.
The upper operon of the TOL plasmid pWW0 of Pseudomonas putida encodes a set of enzymes involved in the conversion of toluene and xylenes to their carboxylic acid derivatives. The last gene of the upper operon, xylN, encodes a 465-amino-acid polypeptide which exhibits significant sequence similarity to FadL, an outer membrane protein involved in fatty acid transport in Escherichia coli. To anal...
متن کاملGenetic, functional and sequence analysis of the xylR and xylS regulatory genes of the TOL plasmid pWW0.
Mutant derivatives of a plasmid, pCF20, which carries the XhoI-D fragment of the TOL plasmid pWW0 have been isolated using Tn5 transposon mutagenesis. Insertion mutations of the xylR and xylS regulatory genes of the catabolic pathway have been isolated and characterized and their ability to induce catechol 2,3-oxygenase activity determined. Analysis of the insertion mutants and also segments of...
متن کاملRegulation of the degradative pathway enzymes coded for by the TOL plasmid (pWWO) from Pseudomonas putida mt-2.
Pseudomonas putida mt-2 carries a plasmid (TOL, pWWO) which codes for a single set of enzymes responsible for the catabolism of toluene and m- and p-xylene to central metabolites by way of benzoate and m- and p-toluate, respectively, and subsequently by a meta cleavage pathway. Characterization of strains with mutations in structural genes of this pathway demonstrates that the inducers of the e...
