Eleven mutations resulting in partially deleted or truncated LEU3 protein were generated by linker insertion or other modifications at restriction sites, deletion of restriction fragments, or oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis. Functional studies of these mutants showed the following: (i) A specific DNA binding region is contained within the 173 N-terminal residues, but other regions of the protein are required for optimal binding. (ii) Activation of LEU2 expression depends on the C-terminal 113 residues of the LEU3 protein. (iii) Deletion of part or all of a central section of LEU3 eliminates the ability of the LEU3 protein to respond to the co-activator alpha-isopropylmalate, i.e. creates an unmodulated activator. (iv) Overproduction of unmodulated activator slows down cell growth. (v) Specific deletion of two short acidic regions, including one with net charge - 19, has only minor effects on activation and modulation. 相似文献

The TyrR protein is involved in both repression and activation of the genes of the TyrR regulon. Correction of an error in a previously published sequence has revealed a Cro-like helix-turn-helix DNA-binding domain near the carboxyl terminus. Site-directed mutagenesis in this region has generated a number of mutants that can no longer repress or activate. Deletions of amino acid residues 5 to 42 produced a protein that could repress but not activate. The central domain of TyrR contains an ATP-binding site and is homologous with the NtrC family of activator proteins. A mutation to site A of the ATP-binding site and other mutations in this region affect tyrosine-mediated repression but do not prevent activation or phenylalanine-mediated repression of aroG. 相似文献
