Tandem promoters direct E. coli ribosomal RNA synthesis.

Abstract：

:To determine the special feature of ribosomal RNA promoters that might account for the highly efficient and regulated synthesis of rRNA in E. coli, we have analyzed the beginnings of two ribosomal RNA operons, rrnD and rrnX. DNA sequences for 425 bp preceding those specifying mature 16s rRNA are reported. In vitro transcription of restriction endonuclease fragments containing this region from either operon reveals the presence of two promoters about 110 nucleotides apart; they are denoted P1 and P2. RNA synthesis from P1 is initiated with GTP at position -284 (relative to 16s sequences) in rrnD and with ATP at position -285 in rrnX. At P2, the RNA starts with CTP primarily at position-176 in both operons. The DNA sequences of the two operons are identical for 231 bp preceding the 16s rDNA (including a substantial region around P2); they then diverge almost completely, except for a notable 18 bp homology just preceding the transcription start site for P1. Certain sequences implicated in the recognition of promoters by E. coli RNA polymerase are clearly identifiable in both P1 and P2; other features include an extended region preceding P1 which is strikingly rich in AT base pairs. Possible mechansims by which these tandem promoters contribute to the high frequency of rRNA transcription and to the differential expression of the E. coli rrn operons are discussed.
