Transcriptional regulation is insufficient to explain substrate-induced flux changes in Bacillus subtilis
One of the key ways in which microbes are thought to regulate their metabolism is by modulating the availability of enzymes through transcriptional regulation. However, the limited success of efforts to manipulate metabolic fluxes by rewiring the transcriptional network has cast doubt on the idea that transcript abundance controls metabolic fluxes. In this study, we investigate control of metab...
متن کاملTranscriptional regulation of the phoPR operon in Bacillus subtilis.
When Bacillus subtilis is subjected to phosphate starvation, the Pho regulon is activated by the PhoP-PhoR two-component signal transduction system to elicit specific responses to this nutrient limitation. The response regulator, PhoP, and its cognate histidine sensor kinase, PhoR, are encoded by the phoPR operon that is transcribed as a 2.7-kb bicistronic mRNA. The phoPR operon is transcribed ...
متن کاملTranscriptional Attenuator in Bacillus subtilis
It has been proposed that uncharged tRNA molecules may act as positive regulatory factors to control the expression of a number of operons in Bacillus subtilis and related bacteria by interacting with leader sequences to cause antitermination. In this study we report the isolation and characterization of regulatory mutations that modify one of the tRNA molecules predicted to have such a regulat...
متن کاملLarge-scale inference of the transcriptional regulation of Bacillus subtilis
This paper addresses the inference of the transcriptional regulatory network of Bacillus subtilis. Two inference approaches, a linear, additive model and a non-linear power-law model, are used to analyze the expression of 747 genes from B. subtilis obtained using Affymetrix GeneChip® arrays under three different experimental conditions. A robustness analysis is introduced for identifying confid...
متن کاملCorrespondence: Reply to ‘DNA shape is insufficient to explain binding'
Transcription factors (TFs) are DNA-binding proteins that regulate gene expression. Sequence-specific TFs recognize DNA via specific amino acid-base hydrogen bonds and contacts that read local DNA shape1. Studying base and shape readout modes of TFs in vivo has been challenging due to technical issues associated with current approaches for mapping TF-binding sites (TFBSs). We recently introduce...
