Fusions of bacteriophage P22 late genes to the Escherichia coli lacZ gene.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The late genes of bacteriophage P22 were fused to lacZ to study their differential expression from the late operon transcript. No instances of posttranscriptional regulation were uncovered, thus supporting the model that the late genes are expressed, by and large, in fixed ratios based on their translational efficiency and message stability.

Expression Cloning of Recombinant Escherichia coli lacZ Genes Encoding Cytoplasmic and Nuclear P-galactosidase Variants
Objective(s) Nonviral vector can be an attractive alternative to gene delivery in experimental study. In spite of some advantages in comparison with the viral vectors, there are still some limitations for efficiency of gene delivery in nonviral vectors. To determine the effective expression, the recombinant Escherichia coli lacZ genes were cloned into the different variants of pcDNA3.1 and the...
متن کاملIsolation of fla-lacZ fusions in Escherichia coli K-12: most fusions result in soluble beta-galactosidase.
A series of fusions of flagellar genes to the lacZ gene was generated by insertion of Mu dII301 (Apr lac) bacteriophage into the genome of Escherichia coli. The beta-galactosidase activity in each resulting mutant was measured, and the location of the activity in the membrane, periplasmic, or cytoplasmic fraction of the cell was determined. There were three classes of mutants: those which had b...
متن کاملIdentification of new genes regulated by the marRAB operon in Escherichia coli.
Random TnphoA and TnlacZ translational fusions were introduced into an Escherichia coli strain with a deletion of the multiple antibiotic resistance (mar) locus, complemented in trans by a temperature-sensitive plasmid bearing the mar locus with a constitutively expressed mar operon. Five gene fusions (two with lacZ and three with phoA) regulated by the mar operon were identified by increased o...
متن کاملAlkaline induction of a novel gene locus, alx, in Escherichia coli.
A novel pH-regulated locus inducible over 100-fold in alkaline media was identified in Escherichia coli through screening of 93,000 Mu dI1734 (lacZ Kmr) operon fusions at pH 6.5 and pH 8.5. Four lacZ fusions that showed expression only at the higher pH were mapped at 67.5 min by P1 transduction crosses. The locus was designated alx.
متن کاملA physical gene map of the bacteriophage P22 late region: genetic analysis of cloned fragments of P22 DNA.
A physical gene map of the late region of the P22 chromosome has been constructed by genetic analysis of restriction enzyme fragments of P22 DNA cloned in a plasmid vector. Cleavage sites for restriction endonucleases SalI, SstI, SmaI, XhoI, and BglI were mapped on P22 DNA to provide physical reference points in addition to the EcoRI, HindIII, and BamHI cleavage sites previously mapped. Restric...
