Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021 The biosynthetic genes for secondary metabolites are often clustered into giant operons with no transcription terminator before the end. The long transcripts are frangible and the transcription efficiency declines along with the process.

FADU: a Quantification Tool for Prokaryotic Transcriptomic Analyses
mSystems, 2021 Quantification tools for RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) analyses are often designed and tested using human transcriptomics data sets, in which full-length transcript sequences are well annotated.

Evaluation of Biofilm Formation and Presence of Genes in Clinical Isolates [PDF]
Osong Public Health and Research Perspectives, 2018 Objectives Biofilm formation is one of the important features of Staphylococcus epidermidis, particularly in nosocomial infections. We aimed to investigate the biofilm production by phenotypic methods and the presence of ica genes in S epidermidis ...

mSphere, 2020 Copper is broadly toxic to bacteria. As such, bacteria have evolved specialized copper export systems (cop operons) often consisting of a DNA-binding/copper-responsive regulator (which can be a repressor or activator), a copper chaperone, and a copper ...

Fate of the H-NS-repressed bgl operon in evolution of Escherichia coli. [PDF]
, 2009 In the enterobacterial species Escherichia coli and Salmonella enterica, expression of horizontally acquired genes with a higher than average AT content is repressed by the nucleoid-associated protein H-NS.

Transcriptome Landscape of Mycobacterium smegmatis
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017 The non-pathogenic bacterium Mycobacterium smegmatis mc2155 has been widely used as a model organism in mycobacterial research, yet a detailed study about its transcription landscape remains to be established. Here we report the transcriptome, expression

The mbo operon is specific and essential for biosynthesis of mangotoxin in Pseudomonas syringae. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Mangotoxin is an antimetabolite toxin produced by certain Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae strains. This toxin is an oligopeptide that inhibits ornithine N-acetyl transferase, a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of ornithine and arginine.

Briefings in Functional Genomics and Proteomics, 2004 It was thought that polycistronic transcription is a characteristic of bacteria and archaea, where many of the genes are clustered in operons composed of two to more than ten genes. By contrast, the genes of eukaryotes are generally considered to be monocistronic, each with its own promoter at the 5' end and a transcription terminator at the 3' end ...
