Mechanism of promoter repression by Lac repressor–DNA loops
The Escherichia coli lactose (lac) operon encodes the first genetic switch to be discovered, and lac remains a paradigm for studying negative and positive control of gene expression. Negative control is believed to involve competition of RNA polymerase and Lac repressor for overlapping binding sites. Contributions to the local Lac repressor concentration come from free repressor and repressor d...
متن کاملpassivity in waiting for godot and endgame: a psychoanalytic reading
this study intends to investigate samuel beckett’s waiting for godot and endgame under the lacanian psychoanalysis. it begins by explaining the most important concepts of lacanian psychoanalysis. the beckettian characters are studied regarding their state of unconscious, and not the state of consciousness as is common in most beckett studies. according to lacan, language plays the sole role in ...
Protein-DNA cross-linking at the lac promoter.
We report the results of photo-cross-linking of RNA polymerase and the cyclic AMP receptor protein (CRP) to the lac UV5 promoter region carried on either a linear fragment or a supercoiled plasmid. We have devised a protocol that allows the localisation of bases in contact with the protein. RNA polymerase makes contacts within the -10 and -35 regions of the promoter, essentially on the non-temp...
متن کاملDriving denaturation: nanoscale thermal transport as a probe of DNA melting.
DNA denaturation has been a subject of intense study due to its relationship to DNA transcription and its fundamental importance as a nonlinear structural transition. Many aspects of this phenomenon, however, remain poorly understood. Existing models fit quite well with experimental results on the fraction of unbound base pairs versus temperature, but yield incorrect results for other essential...
متن کاملCompton scattering as a probe for materials investigation
This article investigates into the feasibility of using gamma radiation Compton backscatter spectra as a means of material characterization, with the view to developing a portable, hand held probe for investigative purposes such as searching for illicit substances hidden in wall or car door cavities.
