[Metabolic regulation of the histidine operon in Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium]. 1988

Expression of the histidine operon in Escherichia coli cells in contrast to the one in Salmonella typhimurium is changed proportionally to cells growth rate on the different carbon sources. The specific activity of histidinol-dehydrogenase is repressed by addition of 19 amino acids both in Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium independent of the growth medium used. Using of Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium strains containing the heterologous histidine operons made possible to demonstrate the dependence of the histidine operon metabolic regulation to be determined by the operon itself but not by the specificity of the recipient cells. ppGpp was shown to be a positive regulator of the histidine operon expression in Escherichia coli.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D009876 Operon In bacteria, a group of metabolically related genes, with a common promoter, whose transcription into a single polycistronic MESSENGER RNA is under the control of an OPERATOR REGION. Operons
D004926 Escherichia coli A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (GRAM-NEGATIVE FACULTATIVELY ANAEROBIC RODS) commonly found in the lower part of the intestine of warm-blooded animals. It is usually nonpathogenic, but some strains are known to produce DIARRHEA and pyogenic infections. Pathogenic strains (virotypes) are classified by their specific pathogenic mechanisms such as toxins (ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI), etc. Alkalescens-Dispar Group,Bacillus coli,Bacterium coli,Bacterium coli commune,Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli,E coli,EAggEC,Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli,Enterococcus coli,Diffusely Adherent E. coli,Enteroaggregative E. coli,Enteroinvasive E. coli,Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli
D005786 Gene Expression Regulation Any of the processes by which nuclear, cytoplasmic, or intercellular factors influence the differential control (induction or repression) of gene action at the level of transcription or translation. Gene Action Regulation,Regulation of Gene Expression,Expression Regulation, Gene,Regulation, Gene Action,Regulation, Gene Expression
D006639 Histidine An essential amino acid that is required for the production of HISTAMINE. Histidine, L-isomer,L-Histidine,Histidine, L isomer,L-isomer Histidine
D006642 Histidinol-Phosphatase An enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of histidinol-phosphate to histidinol. One of the regulatory enzymes in histidine biosynthesis. EC 3.1.3.15. Histidinol Phosphate Phosphatase,Histidinolphosphatase
D000429 Alcohol Oxidoreductases A subclass of enzymes which includes all dehydrogenases acting on primary and secondary alcohols as well as hemiacetals. They are further classified according to the acceptor which can be NAD+ or NADP+ (subclass 1.1.1), cytochrome (1.1.2), oxygen (1.1.3), quinone (1.1.5), or another acceptor (1.1.99). Carbonyl Reductase,Ketone Reductase,Carbonyl Reductases,Ketone Reductases,Oxidoreductases, Alcohol,Reductase, Carbonyl,Reductase, Ketone,Reductases, Carbonyl,Reductases, Ketone
D001618 beta-Lactamases Enzymes found in many bacteria which catalyze the hydrolysis of the amide bond in the beta-lactam ring. Well known antibiotics destroyed by these enzymes are penicillins and cephalosporins. beta-Lactamase,beta Lactamase,beta Lactamases
D012486 Salmonella typhimurium A serotype of Salmonella enterica that is a frequent agent of Salmonella gastroenteritis in humans. It also causes PARATYPHOID FEVER. Salmonella typhimurium LT2
D013045 Species Specificity The restriction of a characteristic behavior, anatomical structure or physical system, such as immune response; metabolic response, or gene or gene variant to the members of one species. It refers to that property which differentiates one species from another but it is also used for phylogenetic levels higher or lower than the species. Species Specificities,Specificities, Species,Specificity, Species
D013913 Threonine Dehydratase A pyridoxal-phosphate protein that catalyzes the deamination of THREONINE to 2-ketobutyrate and AMMONIA. The role of this enzyme can be biosynthetic or biodegradative. In the former role it supplies 2-ketobutyrate required for ISOLEUCINE biosynthesis, while in the latter it is only involved in the breakdown of threonine to supply energy. This enzyme was formerly listed as EC 4.2.1.16. Threonine Deaminase,Threonine Dehydrase,Threonine Ammonia-Lyase,Ammonia-Lyase, Threonine,Deaminase, Threonine,Dehydrase, Threonine,Dehydratase, Threonine,Threonine Ammonia Lyase
