Multiple forms of lysyl-tRNA synthetase from Escherichia coli. 1976

R M Dittgen, and R Leberman

Lysyl-tRNA synthetase has been isolated from E. coli. The enzymatic activity elutes as three or four bands from a hydroxyl-apatite column. Polyacrylamide gel analysis shows that each of these bands contain more than one enzymatically active protein species. The molecular weights of the subunits of these species provides an explanation for the variation in the molecular weights previously reported for this enzyme.

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
