Regulation of potassium dependent ATPase (kdp) operon of Deinococcus radiodurans. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
The genome of D. radiodurans harbors genes for structural and regulatory proteins of Kdp ATPase, in an operon pattern, on Mega plasmid 1. Organization of its two-component regulatory genes is unique.

Gene expression noise in a complex artificial toxin expression system.

PLoS ONE, 2020
Gene expression is an intrinsically stochastic process. Fluctuations in transcription and translation lead to cell-to-cell variations in mRNA and protein levels affecting cellular function and cell fate. Here, using fluorescence time-lapse microscopy, we

A novel method for accurate operon predictions in all sequenced prokaryotes

Nucleic Acids Research, 2005
We combine comparative genomic measures and the distance separating adjacent genes to predict operons in 124 completely sequenced prokaryotic genomes. Our method automatically tailors itself to each genome using sequence information alone, and thus can ...

Identification of anthranilate and benzoate metabolic operons of Pseudomonas fluorescens and functional characterization of their promoter regions

Microbial Cell Factories, 2006
Background In an effort to identify alternate recombinant gene expression systems in Pseudomonas fluorescens, we identified genes encoding two native metabolic pathways that were inducible with inexpensive compounds: the anthranilate operon (antABC) and ...

An inducible fusaric acid tripartite efflux pump contributes to the fusaric acid resistance in Stenotrophomonas maltophilia. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
BACKGROUND: Fusaric acid (5-butylpicolinic acid), a mycotoxin, is noxious to some microorganisms. Stenotrophomonas maltophilia displays an intrinsic resistance to fusaric acid.

Co-Directional Chromosomal Clustering of Metabolic Pathway Genes as a Layout Prior for Synthetic Construct Design

BioTech
Metabolic pathway design tools largely address reaction routes and enzyme choice, whereas a complementary set of questions—how pathway genes are arranged on bacterial chromosomes and whether co-directional neighborhoods can inform multi-gene construct ...

Functional Analysis of the Magnetosome Island in Magnetospirillum gryphiswaldense: The mamAB Operon Is Sufficient for Magnetite Biomineralization

PLoS ONE, 2011
Bacterial magnetosomes are membrane-enveloped, nanometer-sized crystals of magnetite, which serve for magnetotactic navigation. All genes implicated in the synthesis of these organelles are located in a conserved genomic magnetosome island (MAI).

stg fimbrial operon from S. Typhi STH2370 contributes to association and cell disruption of epithelial and macrophage-like cells

Biological Research, 2015
BACKGROUND: Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi (S. Typhi) stg operon, encoding a chaperone/usher fimbria (CU), contributes to an increased adherence to human epithelial cells.

The Antisense RNA As1_flv4 in the Cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 Prevents Premature Expression of the flv4-2 Operon upon Shift in Inorganic Carbon Supply

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2012
Background: Flavodiiron proteins encoded by the flv4-2 operon are photoprotective for photosystem II, but their regulation of expression has remained enigmatic.

Characterization of relationships between transcriptional units and operon structures in Bacillus subtilis and Escherichia coli

BMC Genomics, 2007
Background Operon structures play an important role in transcriptional regulation in prokaryotes. However, there have been fewer studies on complicated operon structures in which the transcriptional units vary with changing environmental conditions ...
