Nucleotide 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 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 کاملPhysical and functional mapping of two cointegrate plasmids derived from RP4 and TOL plasmid pDK1.
Cointegrate plasmids were formed in vivo between the broad-host-range R-plasmid RP4 and two catabolic plasmids derived from Pseudomonas putida HS1. One of these was the wild-type plasmid pDK1 encoding the complete inducible toluene/xylene (TOL) catabolic pathway and one was pDKT1, a deletion derivative of pDK1 selected after growth of HS1 on benzoate and supporting growth on only toluene. The t...
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 کاملConstruction of hybrid xylE genes between the two duplicate homologous genes from TOL plasmid pWW53: comparison of the kinetic properties of the gene products.
The two xylE genes for catechol 2,3-oxygenase, encoded by TOL plasmid pWW53, carry a common SalI restriction site within the reading frame. Each gene was cut at the SalI site and the 5' end of each gene spliced to the 3' end of the other to form hybrid genes, from both of which catalytically active catechol 2,3-oxygenase activities were expressed. The kinetic parameters were determined for the ...
