Here we show that the C-terminal domain of LuxR activates the transcription of Aliivibrio fischeri luxICDABEG in Escherichia coli SKB178 gro(+) and E. coli OFB1111 groEL673 strains to the same level. Using affinity chromatography, we showed that GroEL binds to the N-terminal domain of LuxR, pointing to a GroEL/GroES requirement for the folding of the N-terminal domain of LuxR.
在这里,我们展示了 LuxR 的 C 末端结构域能够在大肠杆菌 SKB178 gro(+)和大肠杆菌 OFB1111 groEL673 菌株中激活 Aliivibrio fischeri luxICDABEG 的转录,其转录水平与在 Aliivibrio fischeri 中相同。通过亲和层析实验,我们发现 GroEL 能够与 LuxR 的 N 末端结构域结合,这表明 GroEL/GroES 对于 LuxR 的 N 末端结构域的折叠是必需的。
