Abstract

Expression of the l-arabinose operon in Escherichia coli B/r is dependent on the temperature of growth of the araC mutants reported in this paper. Analysis of these temperature-sensitive regulatory mutants indicates that both repressor and activator activities are thermolabile. The simplest model to explain the manner in which the operon is controlled is one suggesting that the regulatory gene, araC, codes for a protein which upon synthesis acts as a repressor molecule and prevents operon function. When inducer is added, the repressor undergoes a conformational shift and becomes an activator which switches on enzyme synthesis, provided the repressor concentration is reduced to a sufficiently low level in the cell. These data lend strong support to the model that both activities are the result of the same gene product.

摘要

本文报道的大肠杆菌B/r中L-阿拉伯糖操纵子的表达取决于araC突变体的生长温度。对这些温度敏感型调控突变体的分析表明,阻遏物和激活物活性均不耐热。解释该操纵子调控方式的最简单模型表明,调控基因araC编码一种蛋白质,该蛋白质在合成后作为阻遏分子发挥作用并阻止操纵子功能。当加入诱导剂时,阻遏物发生构象转变并成为激活物,从而开启酶的合成,前提是细胞中阻遏物浓度降低到足够低的水平。这些数据有力地支持了这一模型,即两种活性均为同一基因产物的结果。
