Expression and Regulation

Operons

• Genes: sunA-sunT-bdbA-yolJ-bdbB
  Description: PubMed

  Regulatory mechanism

  • Rok: repression, PubMed, in Rok regulon
  • Abh: activation, PubMed, in Abh regulon
  • DnaA: repression, Rok-DnaA PubMed, in DnaA regulon
  • YvrHb: activation, PubMed, in YvrHb regulon
  • AbrB: repression, PubMed, in AbrB regulon

  Regulation

  • repressed by Rok-DnaA PubMed
  • expression starts in the stationary phase PubMed
  • expression is heterogeneous in the population, this is mediated by AbrB, Rok, and Spo0A PubMed

  Additional information

  • the mRNA is very stable (> 15 min) PubMed
  • the amount of the mRNA is substantially decreased upon depletion of RNase Y PubMed
