Previously, we tagged a macrophage-induced Salmonella typhimurium locus with Mudlux (K. P. Francis and M. P. Gallagher, Infect. Immun. 61:640-649, 1993). The insertion lies within the OxyR-regulated ahpC locus and conveys alkyl peroxide sensitivity. Plasmid-encoded ahp reverses sensitivity but reduces luminescence. This suggests that OxyR is titrated by the multicopy ahp promoter.
此前,我们用Mudlux标记了一个巨噬细胞诱导的鼠伤寒沙门氏菌基因座(K. P. 弗朗西斯和M. P. 加拉格尔,《感染与免疫》61:640 - 649,1993年)。插入位点位于受OxyR调控的ahpC基因座内,并赋予细胞对烷基过氧化物的敏感性。质粒编码的ahp可逆转敏感性,但会降低发光强度。这表明OxyR被多拷贝的ahp启动子滴定。
