Targets for the MalI repressor at the divergent Escherichia coliK-12malX-malI promoters [PDF]
Random mutagenesis has been used to identify the target DNA sites for the MalI repressor at the divergent Escherichia coli K-12 malX-malI promoters. The malX promoter is repressed by MalI binding to a DNA site located from position -24 to position -9 ...

Different fates of the chloroplast tufA gene following its transfer to the nucleus in green algae [PDF]
Previous work suggested that the tufA gene, encoding protein synthesis elongation factor Tu, was transferred from the chloroplast to the nucleus within the green algal lineage giving rise to land plants.

Development of a new bicistronic retroviral vector with strong IRES activity
Background Internal Ribosome Entry Site (IRES)-based bicistronic vectors are important tools in today's cell biology. Among applications, the expression of two proteins under the control of a unique promoter permits the monitoring of expression of a ...

Transformation of the Methylotrophic Actinomycete Amycolatopis methanolica with Plasmid DNA: Stimulatory Effect of a pMEA300-Encoded Gene [PDF]
Amycolatopsis methanolica contains a 13.29-kb plasmid (pMEA300) present both in the free state and integrated at a unique genomic location. A pMEA300-free derivative (strain WV1) was selected, allowing further analysis of pMEA300-encoded functions. Whole

Cleavage of Epstein-Barr virus DNA by restriction endonucleases EcoRI, HindIII and BamI
The cleavage of the DNAs of the B95-8 and P3HR-1 virus strains of Epstein-Barr virus by the restriction endonucleases EcoRI, HindIII and BamI was investigated using a new technique for quantitative evaluation of the fluorescence of ethidium stained DNA fragments separated on agarose gels.

HindIII polymorphism in the humanc-sisproto-oncogene
The 2.0 kb BamH1 restriction fragment corresponding to a cDNA insert encoding the human c-sis PDGF A chain and nucleotide sequences homologous to the v-sis gene was isolated from plasmid pSM-1. An identical polymorphism was noted using the 1.2 kb PstI fragment or the 1.0 kb PstI/XbaI fragment isolated from the v-sis sequence subcloned in the plasmid pV-
