A plasmid system has been constructed which allows high-level expression of the rho gene of Escherichia coli under the control of the pL promoter and the N-antitermination regulatory system of bacteriophage lambda. The pL-directed synthesis of Rho crucially depends on the lambda N gene product and is promoted most effectively when this product is supplied from the N gene cloned on a separate compatible plasmid with a moderate copy number. The requirement for N can be circumvented partly, but not completely, by deletion of the region preceding the rho structural gene. Attempts were also made to optimize the construction of rho-expression plasmids by adjusting the orientation and location of pL and rho inserts on the pBR322 vector. With optimal conditions, Rho protein is overexpressed 100-fold and can become as much as 10% of the total cellular protein. Using this plasmid system, Rho can be purified with a yield of more than 20 mg from 10 g of induced cells. 相似文献

Bending of the bacteriophage lambda attachment site by Escherichia coli integration host factor 总被引:55,自引:0,他引:55
Escherichia coli integration host factor (IHF) is a small basic protein that is required for efficient integrative recombination of bacteriophage lambda. IHF binds specifically to sequences within attP, the site in bacteriophage lambda that undergoes recombination. It has been suggested that the binding of IHF creates bends in DNA so as to help attP condense into a compact structure that is activated for recombination. In this work we show that IHF binding to either of two sites found within attP does indeed produce bending of DNA. In contrast, the other recombination protein needed for integrative recombination, Int, does not appreciably bend the DNA to which it is bound. In agreement with the proposal that IHF bending is important for creating a condensed attP, bending by IHF persists in the presence of bound Int. Our conclusions about protein-directed bends in DNA are based on the study of the electrophoretic mobility of a set of permuted DNA fragments in the presence or absence of IHF and/or Int. To facilitate this study, we have constructed a novel vector that simplifies the generation of permuted fragments. This vector should be useful in studying the bending of other DNA sequences by specific binding proteins. 相似文献
