Abstract

We previously showed that Escherichia coli translation initiation factor IF3 regulates the expression of its own gene infC at the translational level in vivo. Here we create two alterations in the infC gene and test their effects on translational autocontrol of infC expression in vivo by measuring beta-galactosidase activity expressed from infC-lacZ gene fusions under conditions of up to 4-fold derepression or 3-fold repression of infC expression. Replacement of the infC promoter with the trp promoter deletes 120 nucleotides of the infC mRNA 5' to the translation initiation site without affecting autogenous translational control. Mutation of the unusual AUU initiator codon of infC to the more common AUG initiator codon abolishes translation initiation factor IF3-dependent repression and derepression of infC expression in vivo. These results establish the AUU initiator codon of infC as an essential cis-acting element in autogenous translational control of translation initiation factor IF3 expression in vivo.

摘要

我们之前表明,大肠杆菌翻译起始因子IF3在体内翻译水平上调节其自身基因infC的表达。在此,我们对infC基因进行了两处改变,并通过在infC表达高达4倍去阻遏或3倍阻遏的条件下,测量由infC-lacZ基因融合体表达的β-半乳糖苷酶活性,来测试它们对体内infC表达的翻译自调控的影响。用trp启动子替换infC启动子会删除infC mRNA翻译起始位点上游5'端的120个核苷酸,而不影响自身翻译调控。将infC不寻常的AUU起始密码子突变为更常见的AUG起始密码子,会消除体内翻译起始因子IF3对infC表达的阻遏和去阻遏作用。这些结果确立了infC的AUU起始密码子是体内翻译起始因子IF3表达的自身翻译调控中一个必不可少的顺式作用元件。
