A conditional-lethal mutation (rpoB364) mapping to the gene that encodes the β-subunit of RNA polymerase was obtained inEscherichia coli. This mutation caused cell filamentation at the restrictive growth temperature and partial derepression of the osmotically regulatedproU operon at the permissive growth temperature. Even under the latter condition, transformants of therpoB364 mutant strain carrying the plasmid vector pACYC184, but not those carrying otherpolA-dependent multicopy plasmids such as pACYC177 or pBR322, were killed in early stationary phase; one class of suppressor mutants isolated as survivors within these transformant colonies were further derepressed forproU-lac expression, and the mutation in each of several independent clones of this class was mapped tohns, the gene that encodes the protein H-NS of theE. coli nucleoid. Thehns mutations did not suppress the conditional-lethal growth phenotype of therpoB364 mutant itself. On the other hand, intracellular overproduction of guanosine 3’, 5’-bispyrophosphate (ppGpp) in therpoB364 strain alleviated both the growth inhibition at the restrictive temperature and the pACYC184-mediated stationary-phase lethality. Upon subcloning into pUC19 or into pACYC177, a 105-bpXbal-HindIII fragment from pACYC184 was shown to be sufficient to confer therpoB364 hns +-dependent lethal phenotype. We suggest that the level in stationary-phase cultures of a gene product(s) that interacts with the pACYC184 DNA fragment is altered in therpoB364 hns+derivative (compared to that inrpoB+ orrpoB364 hns strains) and that this results in cell suicide. 相似文献

The fidelity role of DNA polymerase I in chromosomal DNA replication in E. coli was investigated using the rpoB forward target. These experiments indicated that in a strain carrying a proofreading-exonuclease-defective form of Pol I (polAexo mutant) the frequency of rpoB mutations increased by about 2-fold, consistent with a model that the fidelity of DNA polymerase I is important in controlling the overall fidelity of chromosomal DNA replication. DNA sequencing of rpoB mutants revealed that the Pol I exonuclease deficiency lead to an increase in a variety of base-substitution mutations. A polAexo mutator effect was also observed in strains defective in DNA mismatch repair and carrying the dnaE915 antimutator allele. Overall, the data are consistent with a proposed role of Pol I in the faithful completion of Okazaki fragment gaps at the replication fork. 相似文献

An isogenic pair of relA+ and relA strains of Escherichia coli B/r with a mutation in the RNA polymerase subunit gene rpoB (Rifr) was isolated in which the relationship between guanosine tetraphosphate (ppGpp) concentration and stable RNA (rRNA, tRNA) gene activity was altered. The RNA polymerase in the rpoB strains was found to be about 20-fold more sensitive to ppGpp with respect to its stable RNA promoter activity than was the wild-type enzyme. The existence of such mutants is consistent with the idea that ppGpp interacts with the RNA polymerase enzyme and thereby alters its promoter selectivity, i.e., reduces its affinity for the stable RNA promoters. Under most conditions, the rpoB mutants had a reduced rate of growth and about a 10-fold-reduced intracellular concentration of ppGpp compared with the rpoB wild-type strains. The reduction of the level of ppGpp in the rpoB mutants during exponential growth was presumably a reflection of an indirect effect of the rpoB mutation on the control of relA-independent ppGpp metabolism. 相似文献

The article presents results of valuation for B. anthracis-specificity and usefulness for its identification obtained for different chromosomal markers. In the second part of the study markers SSH241, SSH196, SSH163, SSH133 as well as a fragment of the house-keeping gene rpoB were analyzed. For the investigation MSSCP and multiplex-PCR assays were used. There were also tested different techniques of electrophoresis. The results gave an information about specificity of tested markers and their usefulness for B. anthracis identification. 相似文献

In a previous study, we found that the phylogenetic analysis of partial rpoB sequences can be used effectively to phylogenetically differentiate Streptomyces spp. [B.J. Kim, C.J. Kim, J. Chun, Y.H. Koh, S.H. Lee, J.W. Hyun, C.Y. Cha, Y.H. Kook, Phylogenetic analysis of the genera Streptomyces and Kitasatospora based on partial RNA polymerase beta-subunit gene (rpoB) sequences, Int. J. Syst. Evol. Microbiol. 54 (2004) 593-598]. In the present study, we analyzed the partial rpoB gene sequences of 19 reference Streptomyces strains associated with potato scab. Furthermore, to empirically confirm the usefulness of rpoB gene analysis for the phylogenetic differentiation of Streptomyces spp., we applied the proposed system to 27 potato scab isolates obtained from the Korean provinces of Jeju-do and Kangwon-do. Phylogenetic relationships among these isolates using the devised rpoB gene-based methods were generally similar to those reported for 16S rRNA gene-based analysis. Isolates from potato scab lesion in Korea were also clearly differentiated into their phylogenetic groups by this method. In addition, the deduced RpoB amino acid sequences were also found to be useful for differentiating these strains. Our data demonstrate that the rpoB gene-based method can be used as a means of complementing other genetic methods such as 16S rRNA gene analysis or DNA-DNA hybridization to phylogenetically differentiate potato scab related Streptomyces spp. 相似文献

The rpoB gene encoding the beta subunit of the DNA-dependent RNA polymerase was molecularly characterized by PCR amplification and DNA sequencing in 26 Brucella reference strains by using primers selected according to the B. melitensis 16 M rpoB published sequence. Comparison of the rpoB nucleotide sequence of all Brucella strains analysed revealed specific nucleotide variations associated with different Brucella species and biovars. 17 rpoB alleles were recognized and new Brucella typing is proposed. Our results suggest that the rpoB gene polymorphism can be used to identify all Brucella species and most of the biovars, offering an improvement over conventional typing methods. 相似文献

In order to delineate the region involved in feedback regulation of the RNA polymerase beta subunit (encoded by rpoB), a collection of rpoB-lacZ translational fusions with different endpoints both upstream and downstream of the rpoB start site was assembled on lambda phage vectors. The extent of translational repression of beta was monitored by measuring beta-galactosidase levels in monolysogens of the fusions under conditions of increased intracellular concentrations of beta and beta' achieved via the induction of rpoBC expression from a multicopy plasmid. A construct containing as little as 29 bp upstream of the start of rpoB exhibited repression of beta-galactosidase activity to the same extent as a construct encoding the full upstream region. A construct which carried only 70 bp of the rpoB structural gene exhibited very little repression, while constructs which carried 126 or 221 bp of rpoB exhibited approximately the same degree of repression as a construct which carried 403 bp. These data suggest that the sequences important for feedback regulation of beta translation extend more than 70 bp into rpoB but are completely contained within a region which spans the sequences from 29 bp upstream to 126 bp downstream of the translational start site. 相似文献

AIM: To avoid the limitations of 16S rRNA-based phylogenetic analysis for Paenibacillus species, the usefulness of the RNA polymerase beta-subunit encoding gene (rpoB) was investigated as an alternative to the 16S rRNA gene for taxonomic studies. METHODS AND RESULTS: Partial rpoB sequences were generated for the type strains of eight nitrogen-fixing Paenibacillus species. The presence of only one copy of rpoB in the genome of P. graminis strain RSA19(T) was demonstrated by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis and hybridization assays. A comparative analysis of the sequences of the 16S rRNA and rpoB genes was performed and the eight species showed between 91.6-99.1% (16S rRNA) and 77.9-97.3% (rpoB) similarity, allowing a more accurate discrimination between the different species using the rpoB gene. Finally, 24 isolates from the rhizosphere of different cultivars of maize previously identified as Paenibacillus spp. were assigned correctly to one of the nitrogen-fixing species. CONCLUSIONS, SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The data obtained in this study indicate that rpoB is a powerful identification tool, which can be used for the correct discrimination of the nitrogen-fixing species of agricultural and industrial importance within the genus Paenibacillus. 相似文献

We identified a new gene, hos, which exerts different sporulation phenotypes in Bacillus subtilis strains with different genetic backgrounds. The hos+ gene showed normal sporulation in the genetic background of JH642 but showed temperature-sensitive sporulation in that of the Tano-oka W. The hos gene was mapped between cysA and rpoB. 相似文献
