The gene (tutA) encoding tyrosine phenol-lyase from Erwinia herbicola was cloned into Escherichia coli, and fusions to the lac and tac promoters were constructed. The enzyme was expressed at high levels in E. coli in the presence of isopropyl-beta-D-thiogalactopyranoside or lactose as an inducer. L-Dihydroxyphenylalanine was synthesized in high yield from catechol, pyruvate, and ammonia by induced cells. 相似文献

Activity of the hybrid trp-lac (tac) promoter of Escherichia coli in Pseudomonas putida. Construction of broad-host-range, controlled-expression vectors 总被引:62,自引:0,他引:62
A broad-host-range vector, pKT240, containing the structural gene (aph) for aminoglycoside phosphotransferase (APH), without promoter, has been constructed. Insertion of DNA fragments carrying promoters upstream of aph gene into the unique EcoRI site of this vector results in the expression of the aph gene and consequently the resistance of the host cells to streptomycin. The new vector has been used to show that the hybrid trp-lac (tac) promoter and the promoter of the lacIQ gene of Escherichia coli are active in Pseudomonas putida. Derivatives of pKT240 containing tac and lacIQ sequences may be used as wide-host-range expression vectors. Regulated overproduction of APH and catechol 2,3-oxygenase can be obtained with the aid of the new vectors in both E. coli and P. putida. 相似文献

At was shown with the help of promoterless alpha-amylase and staphylokinase genes that lambda PR and lambda PL promoters could be used in Bacillus subtilis. Promoters strength was compared to promoter of alpha-amylase gene, this enabled to order the promoters in a row: PAA greater than lambda PR greater than lambda PL. The lambda PR promoter region was controlled by temperature in E. coli cells only, but not in B. subtilis, therefore, the active lambda C1857 gene product was not produced in B. subtilis cells. The lambda PR promoter is used by B. subtilis at a later growth stage than PAA and the lambda PL promoter at a still later stage than lambda PR. The data enables lambda PR to be considered as quite useful for Bacilli. 相似文献

Expression of Photobacterium leiognathi bioluminescence genes under the control of lac, tac, tet promoters in Escherichia coli cells has been studied. The position of the genes for aliphatic aldehyde biosynthesis and for the synthesis of luciferase subunits was identified. The plasmid pBRPL1 has been constructed containing the system of bioluminescence genes devoid of promoter following the polylinker DNA fragment. The plasmid can be used for selection of promoter containing DNA sequences as well as for studying the promoters regulation in process of Escherichia coli cells growth. 相似文献

The Escherichia coli d-xylose isomerase (d-xylose ketol-isomerase, EC 5.3.1.5) gene, xylA, has been cloned on various E. coli plasmids. However, it has been found that high levels of overproduction of the d-xylose isomerase, the protein product of the xylA gene, cannot be accomplished by cloning the intact gene on high copy-number plasmids alone. This is believed to be due to the fact that the expression of the gene through its natural promoter is highly regulated in E. coli. In order to overcome this, the xylA structural gene has been fused with other strong promoters such as tac and lac, resulting in the construction of a number of fused genes. Analysis of the E. coli transformants containing the fused genes, cloned on high copy-number plasmids, indicated that a 20-fold overproduction of the enzyme can now be obtained. It is expected that overproduction of the enzyme in E. coli can still be substantially improved through additional manipulation with recombinant DNA techniques. 相似文献

The yeast plasma membrane ATPase gene PMA1 was cloned into Escherichia coli using the high expression tac and T7 promoters. The gene product is toxic to the bacterial cell leading to very low expression levels and arrested growth of the host cell within minutes of induction. The expressed protein is immunologically cross-reactive with the yeast ATPase, comigrates with the original protein in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels, and is isolated in the E. coli membrane fraction. The partially purified protein exhibits ATPase activity. 相似文献

Several new bacterial host-vector systems for Klebsiella, Erwinia, Xanthomonas, Nocardia, and Streptomyces have been developed. With these host-vector systems, a strain of Klebsiella, which overproduces the extracellular starch-debranching enzyme, pullulanase, has been developed. The gene for cholesterol oxidase was cloned and used to develop a strain of Streptomyces lividans that extracellularly produces the enzyme, cholesterol oxidase, which is utilized to process cholesterol and diagnostically. The genes for these two enzymes were sequenced, and several interesting facts about their structures and secretory mechanisms were found. For expression of mammalian gene products, the expression vectors. pYM001 to pYM008, containing the lambda P(R)P(L) promoter, which is controlled by a thermolabile repressor, have been developed. The activities of these promoters were compared in various bacterial strains with the galK monitoring system. E. coli promoters, such as lac, trp, tac, lambda P(R), P(L), and P(R)P(L), were found to be expressed in other enteric bacteria and in Bacillus subtilis. With these expression vectors, the vesicular stomatitis virus-nucleocapsid, monkey metallothionein, and human apolipoprotein A1 genes were expressed in E. coli. 相似文献

A DNA fragment containing only the putative immunity gene-coding sequence was cloned under the control of the trp and lambda PL promoters, generating pRKA11 and pIPL, respectively. Escherichia coli hosts containing either construction were immune to colicin E1. Cells harboring both pIPL and pNT204, which encodes a temperature-sensitive cI repressor, were sensitive to colicin E1 at 30 degrees C, but became immune after 0.5 h of incubation at 42 degrees C. In addition, pRKA11 directed the synthesis of a 14.5-kDA protein in maxicells, identical to that found with the wild-type immunity gene. This evidence identifies unequivocally the coding sequence of the immunity gene as that extending from bases 1214 to 1552 [OKA, A., et al., Mol. Gen. Genet. 172, 151-159 (1979)]. The entire immunity gene operon was also cloned under the control of the tac promoter, generating pTCU2, which, upon induction with isopropyl beta-D-thiogalactopyranoside, produced the imm gene product in amounts sufficient to be visualized by autoradiography. 相似文献

Spacing of the -10 and -35 regions in the tac promoter. Effect on its in vivo activity 总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17
In the tac promoter (deBoer, H. A., Comstock, L. J., and Vasser, M. (1983) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 80, 21-25) the spacing between the -35 and -10 consensus sequences is 16 base pairs. Between these two regions we inserted 1 or 2 base pairs to increase the distance to 17 base pairs (trc promoter) or 18 base pairs (tic promoter). The activities of the three promoters were compared in vivo by fusion to the chloramphenicol acetyltransferase or to the Escherichia coli 4.5 S RNA gene. Both measurements gave consistent results. The trc and tic promoters are on average about 90% and 65% as active as the tac promoter, respectively. 相似文献

The role of the Escherichia coli lactose permease (LacY) in the homogeneous induction of the lactose-inducible promoters P(tac) and P(trc) by the natural inducer lactose and the synthetic inducer isopropyl-beta-D-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG) was investigated. Lactose requires active transport by LacY, whereas IPTG can freely penetrate the cell wall. In E. coli strains lacking a functional LacY, IPTG is required for induction of P(tac) and P(trc). In E. coli strains carrying a functional LacY, induction of P(trc) and P(tac) with intermediate concentrations of lactose gave rise to two subpopulations, one fully induced and one uninduced, whereas a single, fully induced population resulted when high inducer concentrations were used. In contrast, induction with IPTG gave rise to a single population of cells at all inducer concentrations in both lacY and lacY(+) strains. 相似文献

Dehydroquinate synthase from Escherichia coli: purification, cloning, and construction of overproducers of the enzyme 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Dehydroquinate synthase has been purified 9000-fold from Escherichia coli K-12 (strain MM294). The synthase is encoded by the aroB gene, which is carried by plasmid pLC29-47 from the Carbon-Clarke library. Construction of an appropriate host bearing pLC29-47 results in a strain that produces 20 times more enzyme than strain MM294. Subcloning of the aroB gene behind a tac promoter results in E. coli transformants that produce 1000 times more enzyme than MM294: the synthase constitutes 5% of the soluble protein of the cell. A laborious isolation from 50 g of wild-type E. coli cells yields 80 micrograms of impure enzyme, whereas 50 g of cells containing the subcloned gene yields 150 mg of homogeneous enzyme in a two-column purification. Dehydroquinate synthase is a monomeric protein of Mr 40 000-44 000. The chromosomal enzyme from E. coli K-12, the cloned enzyme encoded by the plasmid pLC29-47, and the subcloned inducible enzyme encoded by pJB14 all comigrate on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis under denaturing conditions. 相似文献

The phytopathogenic enterobacterium Erwinia chrysanthemi excretes multiple isozymes of the plant tissue-disintegrating enzyme, pectate lyase (PL). Genes encoding PL were cloned from E. chrysanthemi CUCPB 1237 into Escherichia coli HB101 by inserting Sau3A-generated DNA fragments into the BamHI site of pBR322 and then screening recombinant transformants for the ability to sink into pectate semisolid agar. Restriction mapping of the cloned DNA in eight pectolytic transformants revealed overlapping portions of a 9.8-kilobase region of the E. chrysanthemi genome. Deletion derivatives of these plasmids were used to localize the pectolytic genotype to a 2.5-kilobase region of the cloned DNA. PL gene expression in E. coli was independent of vector promoters, repressed by glucose, and not induced by galacturonan. PL accumulated largely in the periplasmic space of E. coli. An activity stain used in conjunction with ultrathin-layer isoelectric focusing resolved the PL in E. chrysanthemi culture supernatants and shock fluids of E. coli clones into multiple forms. One isozyme with an apparent pI of 7.8 was produced at a far higher level in E. coli and was common to all of the pectolytic clones. Activity staining of renatured PL in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels revealed that this isozyme comigrated with the corresponding isozyme produced by E. chrysanthemi. The PL isozyme profiles produced by different clones and deletion derivative subclones suggest that the cloned region contains at least two PL isozyme structural genes. Pectolytic E. coli clones possessed a limited ability to macerate potato tuber tissues. 相似文献

The complete coding sequence for human glucose-6-phosphate-dehydrogenase (G6PD) was inserted downstream from the tac promoter of a plasmid, pJF118EH, which also carries the lacIq repressor gene. When Escherichia coli strains (that are unable to grow on glucose due to the absence of functional zwf (G6PD-) and pgi genes) were transformed with this plasmid (pAC1), they were able to grow on glucose as sole carbon source. The rate of growth on glucose was faster in the presence of the inducer of the tac promoter, isopropyl-beta-D-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG). Extracts of the transformed cells contained a G6PD activity that was not detectable in the parental strains and that was inducible by IPTG. The G6PD activities from normal E. coli and from pAC1-transformed cells comigrated with human G6PD when subjected to electrophoresis on agarose gels. However, when denatured, the G6PD produced by pAC1 was, like the human enzyme, distinguishable from the E. coli-encoded enzyme on the basis of its immunoreactivity with antibody specific for human G6PD. Therefore, human G6PD can be expressed in E. coli and can function to complement the bacterial enzyme deficiency. 相似文献
