Two Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) groEL-like genes, groEL1 and groEL2, were cloned and characterized. Pulsed-field-gel electrophoresis located these genes, which were not adjacent, in the same segment of the chromosome. Nucleotide sequence analysis revealed that groEL1, but not groEL2, was preceded by a groES-like gene. Northern blots showed that heat shock induced the accumulation of transcripts corresponding to groES (0.7 kb), groES/EL1 (2.3 kb) and groEL2 (2.1 kb). Unique transcription start points and promoters were located for groES/EL1 and groEL2, having -10 and -35 hexamers similar to eubacterial vegetative promoters. Regions located 5' to the groES/EL1 or groEL2 structural genes contain 'GCACTCN9GAGTGC' motifs conserved upstream from the heat-shock genes of other bacteria.
克隆并鉴定了天蓝色链霉菌A3(2)的两个类groEL基因groEL1和groEL2。脉冲场凝胶电泳将这两个不相邻的基因定位在染色体的同一段上。核苷酸序列分析表明,groEL1之前有一个类groES基因,而groEL2之前没有。Northern杂交显示,热休克诱导了与groES(0.7 kb)、groES/EL1(2.3 kb)和groEL2(2.1 kb)相对应的转录本的积累。确定了groES/EL1和groEL2独特的转录起始点和启动子,其-10和-35六聚体与真细菌营养型启动子相似。位于groES/EL1或groEL2结构基因5'端的区域含有“GCACTCN9GAGTGC”基序,该基序在其他细菌的热休克基因上游保守。
