Multiple regulatory mechanisms act on the 5' untranslated region of the S-layer gene from Thermus thermophilus HB8.
The role of the 5' untranslated region (5'UTR) of the S-layer gene from Thermus thermophilus was analyzed through the isolation of Delta 5'UTR mutants. In these mutants the half-life of splA mRNA was strongly reduced and slpA transcription was no longer subjected to growth phase-dependent repression. Overproduction and detachment of the external envelopes of the mutants were observed in station...
متن کاملThermoadaptation of -Galactosidase AgaB1 in Thermus thermophilus
The evolutionary potential of a thermostable -galactosidase, with regard to improved catalytic activity at high temperatures, was investigated by employing an in vivo selection system based on thermophilic bacteria. For this purpose, hybrid -galactosidase genes of agaA and agaB from Bacillus stearothermophilus KVE39, designated agaA1 and agaB1, were cloned into an autonomously replicating Therm...

متن کاملTransferable denitrification capability of Thermus thermophilus.
Laboratory-adapted strains of Thermus spp. have been shown to require oxygen for growth, including the model strains T. thermophilus HB27 and HB8. In contrast, many isolates of this species that have not been intensively grown under laboratory conditions keep the capability to grow anaerobically with one or more electron acceptors. The use of nitrogen oxides, especially nitrate, as electron acc...
متن کاملThiostrepton-resistant mutants of Thermus thermophilus.
Ribosomal protein L11 and its associated binding site on 23S rRNA together comprise one of the principle components that mediate interactions of translation factors with the ribosome. This site is also the target of the antibiotic thiostrepton, which has been proposed to act by preventing important structural transitions that occur in this region of the ribosome during protein synthesis. Here, ...
