Evidence for cAMP-mediated control of isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase formation in Escherichia coli K-12. 1985

A L Williams, and R S Barnett

The ability of cAMP to inhibit isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase (IRS) formation has been demonstrated in wild type K-12 Escherichia coli and two adenyl-cyclase (cya) mutants. cAMP appeared not to have any effect on either the valyl- or arginyl-tRNA synthetase (VRS and ARS respectively). Addition of cAMP led to a reduction in rate of IRS synthesis but not VRS or ARS. Furthermore, derepression of IRS and VRS by isoleucine limitation was completely prevented by cAMP.

D009154	Mutation	Any detectable and heritable change in the genetic material that causes a change in the GENOTYPE and which is transmitted to daughter cells and to succeeding generations.	Mutations
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
