摘要

Strains of Bads subtilis containing a temperature-sensitive tryp- tophanyl-tRNA synthetase produce elevated levels of the trypto- phan pathway enzymes, when grown at high temperatures in the presence of excess tryptophan. This increase is because of reduced availability of the tryptophan-activated trP RNA-binding attenua- tion protein (TRAP). To test the hypothesis that this elevated trP gene expression was caused by the overproduction of a transcript capable of binding and sequestering TRAP. a computer program was designed to search the B. subtilis genome sequence for additional potential TRAP binding sites. A region containing a stretch of (G/A)AG trinucleotide repeats, characteristic of a TRAP binding site. was identified in the yCZAyCbK operon. We show that transcriptional regulation of the yCZAwtK operon is controlled by the T-box antitermination mechanism in response to the level of uncharged tRNATrp. and that the presence of a trPS1 mutant allele increases production of the yCZAtwK transcript. Elevated yCZA- yCbK expression was shown to activate transcription of the trP operon. Deletion of the yCZAtwK operon abolishes the trPS1 effect on trP gene expression. The purpose of increasing expres- sion of the genes of tryptophan biosynthesis in the trPS mutant would be to provide additional tryptophan to overcome the charged tRNATrp deficiency. Therefore. in B. Subhas. as in Esche- richia coli, transcription of the tryptophan biosynthetic genes is regulated in response to changes in the extent of charging of tRNATrp as well as the availability of tryptophan.
