The key elements of the regulatory system activating expression of the lux-operon genes in the sea bacteria Vibrio fischeri are the LuxR protein (an activator oftranscription) and N-(3-oxohexanoyl) L-homoserine lactone (an autoinducer, AI). It is shown that the ATP-dependent proteases ClpXP and Lon take part in the negative control of expression of the lux-operon genes and that AI protects the LuxR protein from proteolysis.
在海洋细菌费氏弧菌中激活lux操纵子基因表达的调控系统的关键元件是LuxR蛋白(一种转录激活因子)和N-(3-氧代己酰基)-L-高丝氨酸内酯(一种自诱导物,AI)。研究表明,ATP依赖性蛋白酶ClpXP和Lon参与lux操纵子基因表达的负调控,并且AI可保护LuxR蛋白不被蛋白酶解。
