The requirement for araC protein in the induction of the araBAD operon was investigated. Strains of Escherichia coli carrying an araC(Am) mutation and temperature-sensitive amber suppressors were used to vary the intracellular level of araC protein. The levels of araC protein studied ranged from 0.007 to 1.8 times the normal amount. The results indicate that the normal level of araC protein is just sufficient to provide maximal expression of the araBAD operon.
研究了阿拉伯糖操纵子诱导过程中对阿拉伯糖C蛋白的需求。使用携带阿拉伯糖C(Am)突变和温度敏感型琥珀抑制子的大肠杆菌菌株来改变细胞内阿拉伯糖C蛋白的水平。所研究的阿拉伯糖C蛋白水平范围为正常量的0.007至1.8倍。结果表明,阿拉伯糖C蛋白的正常水平刚好足以使阿拉伯糖操纵子实现最大表达。
