RegulonDB RegulonDB 10.10: Operon Form
   

tff-rpsB-tsf operon and associated TUs in Escherichia coli K-12 genome




Operon      
Name: tff-rpsB-tsf
This page displays every known transcription unit of this operon and their known regulation.


Transcription unit       
Name: rpsB-tsf
Gene(s): tff, rpsB, tsf   Genome Browser M3D Gene expression COLOMBOS
Note(s): There is a typical rho-independent termination or attenuation site in the intergenic region of rpsB and tsf which is preceded by a very stable stem-loop structure that, in its RNA form, is reminiscent of an RNA polymerase III site An G,1981. However, neither an attenuator effect nor promoter activity was observed An G,1981.

Promoter
Name: rpsBp
+1: 189712
Sigma Factor: Sigma70 Sigmulon
Distance from start of the gene: 0
Sequence: tgctgtacacagcgccaacaattattggtgtccacgacgtatttgtggtataaagcgcgcCggacttccgatccatttcgt
                         -35                     -10        +1                   
Note(s): The rpsB promoter belongs to the extended -10 promoter class Aseev LV,2008 It comprises a TGTG extension upstream of the -10 hexamer TATAAA, a suboptimal -35 box, TTGGTG, and a GC-rich discriminator, GCGCGC, that separates the -10 element from the transcription start site and is reminiscent of a GC-rich discriminator typical for promoters under growth rate and stringent control Aseev LV,2014. Aseev LV,2008and references therein|. The design of the rpsB promoter region is highly conserved in γ-proteobacteria Aseev LV,2008
Site-directed mutation on both the TGTG extension and the TTG element in the -35 region had effects on transcription, since they dramatically decreased the activity of the promoter Aseev LV,2014
