transcription terminator - Opis:
- Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are natural polyesters that are synthesized by many bacteria as an intracellular carbon and energy compound. Medium-chain-length polyhydroxyalkanoates (mcl-PHAs) have gained much interest in research on microbial biopolymers because of their ease of chemical modification. Mcl-PHAs are naturally synthesized by Pseudomonas species by transformation of wide range of substrates. The physiological background of mcl-PHAs synthesis is known, and key genes engaged in this process are discovered already, but the knowledge about their molecular regulation is still limited. Especially, there is lack of information concerning the transcription termination of gene coding for PHA polymerase (phaC1). It is assumed that the main role could play Rho-independent termination, which is related to presence of palindromic sequences, which leads to formation of the hairpin structure and to dissociation of the ternary elongation complex (TEC). In this work, DNA sequences located after phaC1 gene belonging to nineteen Pseudomonas strains were investigated. Among all analyzed strains, five had palindromic sequences, typical for Rhoindependent terminators. Our results proved, that gene phaC1, coding for PHA polymerase, can be independently regulated only in some species.
