mutations causing aminotriazole resistance and temperature sensitivity reside in gyrb, which encodes the b subunit of dna gyrase.certain mutations in gyra and gyrb, the genes encoding the two subunits of dna gyrase, are known to influence expression of the his operon (k. e. rudd and r. menzel, proc. natl. acad. sci. usa 84:517-521, 1987). such mutations lead to a decrease in trna(his) levels and consequently to an attenuator-dependent increase in his operon expression. this effect presumably is due to the dependence of the hisr promoter (hisr encodes trna(his) on supercoiling for maximal activity. we used a relaxed (rel-) ...19921322887
cd4, cd8 and the tcr-cd3 complex: a novel class of protein-tyrosine kinase receptor.a novel form of receptor-kinase interaction was first described in the interaction between the cd4 and cd8 antigens and the protein-tyrosine kinase p56lck. this linkage, between a regulatory antigen on t cells and a member of a family of intracellular molecules with an established ability to activate and transform cells, is likely to be of great importance in the regulation of t-cell growth. recently, data have been obtained on the molecular basis of regulation of the cd4/cd8-p56lck interaction ...19901964053
cloning and dna sequence of the gene coding for the major sigma factor from myxococcus xanthus.the gene for a sigma factor (rpod) was cloned from myxococcus xanthus, a soil bacterium which differentiates to form fruiting bodies upon starvation for nutrients. the dna sequence of the gene was determined, and an open reading frame encoding a polypeptide of 708 amino acid residues (mr = 80,391) was identified. except for the amino-terminal sequence consisting of 100 residues, the m. xanthus sigma factor (sigma-80) showed extensive similarity with escherichia coli sigma-70 as well as bacillus ...19902104614
