Summary The nucleotide sequence of the Escherichia coli K12 -methylgalactoside transport operon, mgl, was determined. Primer extension analysis indicated that the synthesis of mRNA initiates at guanine residue 145 of the determined sequence. The operon contains three open reading frames (ORF). The operator proximal ORF, mglB, encodes the galactose binding protein, a periplasmic protein of 332 amino acids including the 23 residue amino-terminal signal peptide. Following a 62 nucleotide spacer, the second ORF, mglA, is capable of encoding a protein of 506 amino acids. The amino-terminal and carboxyl-terminal halves of this protein are homologous to each other and each half contains a putative nucleotide binding site. The third ORF, mglC, is capable of encoding a hydrophobic protein of 336 amino acids which is thought to generate the transmembrane pore. The overall organization of the mglBAC operon and its potential to encode three proteins is similar to that of the ara FGH high affinity transport operon, located approximately 1 min away on the E. coli K12 chromosome. 相似文献

Summary Nitrate reductase (NR) assays revealed a bi-specific NAD(P)H-NR (EC 1.6.6.2.) to be the only nitrate-reducing enzyme in leaves
of hydroponically grown birches. To obtain the primary structure of the NAD(P)H-NR, leaf poly(A)+ mRNA was used to construct a cDNA library in the lambda gt11 phage. Recombinant clones were screened with heterologous gene
probes encoding NADH-NR from tobacco and squash. A 3.0 kb cDNA was isolated which hybridized to a 3.2 kb mRNA whose level
was significantly higher in plants grown on nitrate than in those grown on ammonia. The nucleotide sequence of the cDNA comprises
a reading frame encoding a protein of 898 amino acids which reveals 67%–77% identity with NADH-nitrate reductase sequences
from higher plants. To identify conserved and variable regions of the multicentre electron-transfer protein a graphical evaluation
of identities found in NR sequence alignments was carried out. Thirteen well-conserved sections exceeding a size of 10 amino
acids were found in higher plant nitrate reductases. Sequence comparisons with related redox proteins indicate that about
half of the conserved NR regions are involved in cofactor binding. The most striking difference in the birch NAD(P)H-NR sequence
in comparison to NADH-NR sequences was found at the putative pyridine nucleotide binding site. Southern analysis indicates
that the bi-specific NR is encoded by a single copy gene in birch.

The genetic organization of the DNA region encoding the phenol degradation pathway ofPseudomonas putida H has been investigated. This strain can utilize phenol or some of its methylated derivatives as its sole source of carbon and energy. The first step in this process is the conversion of phenol into catechol. Catechol is then further metabolized via themeta-cleavage pathway into TCA cycle intermediates. Genes encoding these enzymes are clustered on the plasmid pPGH1. A region of contiguous DNA spanning about 16 kb contains all of the genetic information necessary for inducible phenol degradation. The analysis of mutants generated by insertion of transposons and cassettes indicates that all of the catabolic genes are contained in a single operon. This codes for a multicomponent phenol hydroxylase andmeta-cleavage pathway enzymes. Catabolic genes are subject to positive control by the gene product(s) of a second locus. 相似文献
