Isolation of a λd v Plasmid Carrying the Bacterial gal Operon [PDF]
Journal of Virology, 1974 A λ dvgal plasmid carrying genes for controlled plasmid replication from phage λ and the bacterial gal operon was isolated as a deletion mutant of phage λ gal q4, which carries the gal operon between λ genes P and

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1971 Abstract In a transcription system containing λpgal8 DNA as template and Escherichia coli RNA polymerase, the addition of cyclic adenosine monophosphate receptor protein (CRP) and 3',5'-cyclic AMP causes a 15-fold increase in gal mRNA synthesis. Gal mRNA was measured by hybridizing the [3H]RNA product to the separated strands of λpgal8 DNA after ...

Regulation of the gal Operon of Escherichia coli by the capR Gene
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1972 Abstract We have examined in greater detail the derepression of uridine diphosphate galactose-4-epimerase synthesis in capR mutants of Escherichia coli first observed by Markovitz. (Markovitz, A. (1964) Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 51, 239–246). All three enzymes of the gal operon are derepressed from 2- to 4-fold by this mutation.

Cyclic AMP-dependent constitutive expression of gal operon: use of repressor titration to isolate operator mutations. [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1983 When the gal operator region is present in a multicopy plasmid it binds to all ("titrates") the gal repressor and "induces" the chromosomal gal operon. To make operator mutations (Oa) with reduced affinity toward the repressor, plasmid DNA was irradiated with UV light and mutant derivatives were isolated that were unable to release the chromosomal gal ...

Beyond FimH: Diversity and Relevance of Carbohydrate-Binding Fimbrial Proteins in Escherichia coli. [PDF]
ChembiochemThis review discusses fimbrial lectins found in Escherichia coli (E. coli) other than FimH, which could be targeted to treat E. coli pathogenicity as an alternative to antibiotic treatment. Escherichia coli (E. coli) is responsible for multiple diseases in humans and animals.

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1974 Abstract To elucidate further how cyclic adenosine 3' : 5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) and the cyclic AMP receptor are able to stimulate gal mRNA synthesis we have utilized an antiserum specific for cyclic AMP receptor and also cyclic GMP as inhibitors of cyclic AMP and cyclic AMP receptor action.

Transcriptional activation of the glycolytic las operon and catabolite repression of the gal operon in Lactococcus lactis are mediated by the catabolite control protein CcpA [PDF]
Molecular Microbiology, 1998 The Lactococcus lactis ccpA gene, encoding the global regulatory protein CcpA, was identified and characterized. Northern blot and primer extension analyses showed that the L. lactis ccpA gene is constitutively transcribed from a promoter that does not contain a cre sequence.
