Abstract A second adenylate cyclase ( cya2 ) gene was isolated from a Rhizobium meliloti F34 gene bank. Complemented E. coli Acya mutants were capable of utilizing a number of, but not all, carbon sources known to be regulated by cAMP. DNA hybridization studies showed cya2 to be unique to R. meliloti strains. The cya2 nucleotide sequence was determined and found to encode a protein of 363 amino acids. Residues were identified within the C-terminal domain which are conserved in both eukaryotic adenylate and guanylate cyclases, including a putative ATP binding site. Similiar residues were also found in the prokaryotic R. meliloti Cya1 protein. A R. meliloti cyal/cya2 double mutant was constructed and characterized; however, cAMP production was still observed in this strain indicating the presence of a third cya gene. 相似文献

An adenylate cyclase, Cya1, regulates cell motility in the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803
The cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 contained two genes, cya1 and cya2, encoding putative adenylate cyclases. The wild type cells are motile, whereas the disruption mutants of cya1, but not cya2, were immotile. Disruption of the cya1 gene also caused reduction of cellular cAMP level. The cya1 mutant cells regained motility when cAMP was added exogenously. 相似文献

大肠杆菌棉子糖操纵子α—半乳糖苷酶表达的调节控制 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The alpha-galactosidase, coded for by the first structural gene rafA in the plasmid determined raf operon was an inducible enzyme. In contrast to lac or mel operon, raf operon has more strict structural specificity for inducers. The enzyme can be induced by melibiose and raffinose, or weakly by D-galactose, but not by structurally related sugars such as lactose, PNPG etc.. The alpha-galactosidase forming capacity as function of growth curve reached a single peak at the end of the logarithmic phase of the growth. The structure and regulation of raf operon is similar to those of lac operon. The repressormor-mediated negative control plays a major role in the regulation of raf operon, and cAMP-CAP mediated positive control is also involved in the regulation. When 0.4% glucose was added into the medium with other carbon sources, the expression of the enzyme was repressed by 2-3 fold. Transient catabolite repression has been observed neither in inducible nor constitutive alpha-galactosidase expression. Based on alpha-galactosidase assay, in mutant strains CA8306(cya) and CA8445 (cya, crp) the expression level of raf operon was only 9% and 2.5% of that in wild type strain respectively. The glucose effect or the repression in cya mutant can be abolished by 1-5 mmol cAMP. The constitutive alpha-galactosidase expression in cya and cry double mutant (CA8445) remains repressible by glucose, but irreversible by cAMP, suggesting cAMP-CAP complex is not the exclusive mediator of the catablite repression.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Cyclic AMP and its receptor protein are required for expression of transfer genes of conjugative plasmid F in Escherichia coli 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
A number of cya and crp mutants of Escherichia coli HfrH were analyzed for several Tra functions of the F plasmid. The mutants were observed to be deficient in conjugal donor ability, absorption of phages MS2 and Q beta and surface exclusion. These defects were suppressed in cya mutants grown with cAMP supplementation. A cAMP concentration of 3 X 10(-4) M produced maximal suppression of donor ability defect in a cya strain. cAMP did not suppress the Tra- phenotype of crp mutants. Latent periods of MS2 were shorter in cya and crp bacteria. Phage T7 development appeared similar in wild type, cya, and crp cells. It is concluded that tra genes of F plasmid are expressed only to a small extent in cya and crp mutants and that cAMP and its receptor protein are required for the normal expression of tra genes. 相似文献

Amplification of the cya gene of E. coli on the plasmid pBR325 leads to an increase of adenylate cyclase activity proportional to the gene dosage. In strains harboring hybrid plasmids with cya gene the intracellular level of cAMP and the rate of nucleotide secretion are also elevated. The adenylate cyclase activity in cells with truncated cya gene cloned on pBR322 remains sensitive to glucose inhibition. Amplification of the cya gene leads to considerable resistance of beta-galactosidase synthesis to transient repression by alpha-methylglucoside, but does not influence the permanent repression caused by glucose. 相似文献

Regulation of acetohydroxy acid synthase activities in adenyl cyclase-deficient strains of Escherichia coli K-12 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Previous findings suggested that cyclic AMP was involved in the regulation of ilvB(AHASI) only and that ilvG (AHASII) and ilvHI (AHASIII) were not controlled by this nucleotide. In this study, derepression patterns of total AHAS activities (ilvB and ilvHI) in adenyl cyclase-negative strains (i.e. cya-) were substantially reduced as contrasted with AHAS activity observed for cya+ strains. Further, the parental strains (cya+) consistently exhibited higher levels of AHAS activity than mutant strains (cya-) during carbon and energy downshifts. Other data suggested that the valine derepression signal could not override the necessity for cya gene product to yield maximal derepression of AHAS gene activities. Cyclic AMP stimulated AHAS gene activities under both in vivo and in vitro assay conditions. Thus, these data provide evidence for an absolute requirement of cAMP for maximal expression of the genes encoding for AHAS activities of E. coli K-12. 相似文献

Vibrio vulnificus, a halophilic estuarine bacterium, causes a fatal septicemia and necrotizing wound infection. To investigate the role of cAMP in V. vulnificus virulence regulation, an in-frame deletion mutant of the cya gene encoding adenylate cyclase was constructed. The cya null mutation resulted in a pleiotropic change of virulence phenotypes. The production of hemolysin and protease, the motility, and the cytotoxicity were decreased by the cya mutation. The defects in the cya mutant were functionally complemented in trans by a plasmid carrying the wild type cya allele. The V. vulnificus cya mutant exhibited a 100-fold increase in LD50 to mice. The result indicates that cAMP plays an essential role in the global regulation of V. vulnificus virulence. 相似文献

Abstract An adenylate cyclase gene ( cya ) mutant was mutagenized and an adenosine 3,5-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP)-requiring mutant (KM8161) was obtained on Davis minimal medium containing glucose in the presence or absence of cAMP. KM8161 also required N -acetylglucosamine for its growth instead of cAMP. Furthermore, the mutant could use neither glucosamine nor N -acetylglucosamine as the carbon source. These results indicate that the cAMP-requiring property is due to multiple mutations of a few genes involved in amino sugar metabolism in addition to cya . By genetic analysis of KM8161, one gene, which was tentatively termed cidA and located near 2 min on the chromosomal map, proved to be defective. Reversion of cidA mutation in KM8161 resulted in recovery of not only the cAMP-requiring phenotype but also non-utilization of amino sugars. When both cAMP and N -acetylglucosamine or glucosamine were added to the culture medium for KM8161, only N -acetylglucosamine could be utilized as the carbon source. These studies s strongly suggest that the cidA or cya mutation in KM8161 causes deficiency in different stages of amino sugar metabolism and the regulatory circuit of growth by cAMP is mediated via control of N -acetylglucosamine metabolism. 相似文献

We examined several aspects of cell division regulation in Escherichia coli which have been thought to be controlled by cyclic AMP (cAMP) and its receptor protein (CAP). Mutants lacking adenyl cyclase (cya) or CAP (crp) were rod shaped, not spherical, during exponential growth in LB broth or glucose-Casamino Acids medium, and lateral wall elongation was normal; in broth, stationary-phase cells became ovoid. Cell mass was smaller for the mutants than for the wild type, but it remained appropriate for their slower growth rate and thus probably does not reflect early (uncontrolled) septation. The slow growth did not seem to reflect a gross metabolic disorder, since the mutants gave a normal yield on limiting glucose; surprisingly, however, the cya mutant (unlike crp) was unable to grow anaerobically on glucose, suggesting a role for cAMP (but not for CAP) in the expression of some fermentation enzyme. Both cya and crp mutants are known to be resistant to mecillinam, an antibiotic which inhibits penicillin-binding protein 2 (involved in lateral wall elongation) and also affects septation. This resistance does not reflect a lack of PBP2. Furthermore, it was not simply the result of slow growth and small cell mass, since small wild-type cells growing in acetate remained sensitive. The cAMP-CAP complex may regulate the synthesis of some link between PBP2 and the septation apparatus. The ftsZ gene, coding for a cell division protein, was expressed at a higher level in the absence of cAMP, as measured with an ftsZ::lacZ fusion, but the amount of protein per cell, shown by others to be invariable over a 10-fold range of cell mass, was independent of cAMP, suggesting that ftsZ expression is not regulated by the cAMP-CAP complex. 相似文献
