Within the 5' and 3' non-coding regions of the T-cyt gene from the octopine T-DNA of Agrobacterium tumefaciens sequences required for expression of this gene in plant cells were identified by deletion mutagenesis. The results show that 184 bp of the 5' non-coding region and 270 bp of the 3' non-coding region are sufficient for wild-type expression. Within the 5' non-coding region two essential expression signals were identified: (1.) an activator element located between -185 and -129 with respect to the ATG start codon and (2.) one out of two TATA boxes. Deletions of the activator element or the two TATA boxes resulted in nonfunctional genes. Deletion of the upstream TATA box and both putative CAAT boxes did not significantly affect expression. Within the 3' non-coding region, the polyadenylation box most distal to the stop codon was not essential for expression, but sequences more upstream, including a second polyadenylation box were found to be required for wild-type expression. 相似文献

Immediate-early mRNA-2 of herpes simplex viruses types 1 and 2 is unspliced: conserved sequences around the 5' and 3' termini correspond to transcription regulatory signals 总被引:29,自引:8,他引:21 下载免费PDF全文
Nuclease S1 and exonuclease VII analyses of immediate-early (IE) mRNA-2 of herpes simplex viruses types 1 and 2 (HSV-1, HSV-2) show them to be unspliced and of similar length. The DNA sequences around the 5' and 3' termini have been determined. Comparison of the sequences around the 5' ends reveals several common features. (1) Four discrete blocks of upstream homology which are precisely colinear with respect to the 5' termini of the mRNAs; the blocks include the 'TATA' box, a G-C rich sequence and a sequence (AATTAAATACAT) which may be involved in the coordinate induction of the IE class of genes. (2) Several copies of the sequence CCCCGCCC, found in different upstream positions in HSV-1 and HSV-2, which may be important in the expression of a wide variety of eukaryotic genes. (3) Potential hairpin structures in the region of the 5' termini which are present at similar locations in HSV-1 and HSV-2. Sequence comparison around the 3' termini of IEmRNA-2 reveals high homology at the proposed C-terminus of the polypeptide. 相似文献

Since translational start codons also occur internally, more-complex features within mRNA must determine initiation. We compare the potential secondary structure of 123 prokaryotic mRNA start regions to that of regions coding for internal methionines. The latter display an unexpectedly-uniform, almost-periodic pattern of pairing potential. In contrast, sequences 5' to start codons have little self-pairing, and do not pair extensively with the proximal coding region. Pairing potential surrounding start codons was found to be less than half of that found near internal AUGs. In groups of random sequences where the distribution of nucleotides at each position, or of trinucleotides at each in-frame codon position, matched the observed natural distribution, there was no periodicity in the pairing potential of the internal sequences. Randomized internal sequences had less pairing: the ratio of pairing intensity between internals and starts was reduced from 2.0 to 1.6 by randomization. We propose that the transition from the relatively-unstructured start domains to the highly-structured internal sequences may be an important determinant of translational start-site recognition. 相似文献
