چکیده
The DHA sequence of Escherichia coll aceB encoding malate synthase A has been determined(1). Shown is the coding region of aceB flanked by the Cterminal region of an upstream open reading frame and the N-terminal coding region of the adjacent aceA gene (2). The transcription start site is shown by an asterisk and the -10 and -35 site of the promoter are marked and underlined (3). Sequences similar to ribosome binding sites for aceB and aceA (2) are underlined. Regions of dyad symmetry in or. near the promoter are marked by arrows and numbered. 1 is probably the terminator for the upstream gene, 2, 3, 4 and 5 are possible regulatory sites. DHA from the aceB gene hybridizes to a 10 kb RNA transcript.

Glyoxylate bypass operon of Escherichia coli: cloning and determination of the functional map.
In Escherichia coli, a single operon encodes the metabolic and regulatory enzymes of the glyoxylate bypass. The metabolic enzymes, isocitrate lyase and malate synthase, are expressed from aceA and aceB, and the regulatory enzyme, isocitrate dehydrogenase kinase/phosphatase, is expressed from aceK. We cloned this operon and determined its functional map by deletion analysis. The order of the gen...
متن کاملSynthesis and Expression of Modified bFGF Gene in Escherichia coli Cells
A new strategy for construction of synthetic gene encoding human basic fibroblast growth factor comprising DNA annealing-ligation and augmentation by polymerase chain reaction was introduced. The sequence of the gene and corresponding amino acid chain were modified in order to increase stability of the protein. First, 300 bp and 160 bp fragments of the gene were assembled from 18 oligonucleotid...

ABSTRACT Background and Objective: Genetic variations in the gene encoding endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) enzyme affect the susceptibility to cardiovascular disease. Identification of the way these changes affect eNOS structure and function in laboratory conditions is difficult and time-consuming. Thus, it seems essential to ...
متن کاملNucleotide sequence for the hemD gene of Escherichia coli encoding uroporphyrinogen III synthase and initial evidence for a hem operon.
1. The hemD gene, encoding uroporphyrinogen III synthase, has been located adjacent to the hemC gene at 85 min on the Escherichia coli chromosome. 2. The entire nucleotide sequence (741 base pairs) of the hemD gene is reported. 3. E. coli strains harbouring plasmics containing the hemD gene produce greatly elevated levels of uroporphyrinogen III synthase. 4. Purified uroporphyrinogen III syntha...

Four exons of the human genomic GM-CSF gene were assembled together using gene splicing by overlap extension (SOE) method. The resulting nucleotide sequence was cloned in the pET23a(+) expression vector under the control of strong bacteriophage T7 transcription and translation signals. The construct obtained was Transferred into the E. coli strain, BL21(DE3) pLysS and IPTG was used for inducti...
