In vitro transcription of the nitrogen fixation regulatory operon nifLA of Klebsiella pneumoniae.

Abstract:

:In vitro transcription from the promoter for the nitrogen fixation regulatory operon nifLA of K. pneumoniae requires four protein fractions: the core form of RNA polymerase; NTRA, an alternate sigma factor; NTRC, an auxiliary DNA-binding protein; and NTRB, a bifunctional enzyme that controls the activity of NTRC by covalent modification (A.J. Ninfa and B. Magasanik, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 83:5909, 1986). Two DNA-binding sites for NTRC lie approximately 150 base pairs upstream of the nifLA promoter.
