In a previous work, we demonstrated that the Mycobacterium tuberculosis Rv2358-furB operon is induced by zinc. In this study, the orthologous genes from Mycobacterium smegmatis mc(2)155 were inactivated and mutants analyzed. Rv2358 protein was purified and found to bind upstream of the Rv2358 gene. Binding was inhibited by Zn(2+) ions.
在先前的一项研究中,我们证明结核分枝杆菌Rv2358-furB操纵子受锌诱导。在本研究中,耻垢分枝杆菌mc(2)155的同源基因被失活并对突变体进行了分析。Rv2358蛋白被纯化,并发现其结合在Rv2358基因的上游。这种结合被Zn(2+)离子抑制。
