Inducible and constitutive nucleoside-binding sites in Escherichia coli: differential inhibition by nucleoside analogues.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Constitutive and inducible nucleoside-binding sites on the surface of the cells of E. coli B have different patterns of inhibition by nucleoside analogues. 1(beta-D-Ribofuranosyl)-4-aminopyrimidine-6-one and isoguanosine preferentially inhibit the inducible binding sites while showdomycin and N(4)-dimethylcytidine interfere more strongly with the constitutive function.

Inhibition of nucleoside-binding sites by nucleoside analogues in Escherichia coli.
SUMMARY Nucleoside analogues modified in heteroeyclic bases or sugar moieties were screened for their ability of counteracting the bacteriostatic effect of showdomycin in E. colio Pyrimidine ribonucleosides or 2-deoxyribonucleosides substituted at the position 5 wijh halogen^atom, methyl or hydroxyl group, 2-fluoro-, 2-chloro-2-deoxyuridme and its 5-methyl homologue, N^-dimethylcytidine and N*-...
متن کاملATP-analogues as substrates for the leucyl-tRNA synthetase from Escherichia coli MRE 600.
No analogous nucleoside triphosphate was found which acts as well as ATP in binding to and supporting catalysis of leucyl-tRNA synthetase from Escherichia coli MRE 600. However, there are numerous nucleotides which are able to replace ATP, but with lower efficiency. The 6-amino group of the adenine ring and the 2'-hydroxyl group of the ribose ring are essential for binding and catalytic activit...
متن کاملCrystal structure of the bacterial nucleoside transporter Tsx.
Tsx is a nucleoside-specific outer membrane (OM) transporter of Gram-negative bacteria. We present crystal structures of Escherichia coli Tsx in the absence and presence of nucleosides. These structures provide a mechanism for nucleoside transport across the bacterial OM. Tsx forms a monomeric, 12-stranded beta-barrel with a long and narrow channel spanning the outer membrane. The channel, whic...
متن کاملIdentification of a novel nucleoside triphosphatase from Mycoplasma mobile: a prime candidate motor for gliding motility.
A protein with a molecular mass of 42 kDa (P42) from Mycoplasma mobile, one of several mycoplasmas that exhibit gliding motility, was shown to be a novel NTPase (nucleoside triphosphatase). Although the P42 protein lacks a common ATP-binding sequence motif (Walker A), the recombinant proteins expressed in Escherichia coli certainly hydrolysed some nucleoside triphosphates, including ATP. The re...
متن کاملDownregulation of the Escherichia coli guaB promoter by FIS
The Escherichia coli guaB promoter (P(guaB)) regulates transcription of two genes, guaB and guaA, that are required for the synthesis of guanosine 5'-monophosphate (GMP), a precursor for the synthesis of guanine nucleoside triphosphates. Transcription from P(guaB) increases as a function of increasing cellular growth rate, and this is referred to as growth rate-dependent control (GRDC). Here we...
