In Escherichia coli the iron uptake systems are regulated by the fur gene product. The synthesis of the outer membrane proteins fiu, fepA, fecA, fhuA, fhuE and cir is derepressed at low iron concentrations in the medium or constitutive in a fur mutant. The fur gene region cloned into pACYC184 was an
A novel mutation, FruS localised in the fru operon was obtained. It uncouples expression of the genes determining synthesis of the fructose-specific transport proteins and fructose-1-phosphate kinase. In FruS bacteria the fruA and fruF genes (coding for Enzyme IIfru and FPr, respectively) are consti
Kline et al. (1980) have reported that indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and four other indole derivatives are able to substitute for cAMP in activating expression of the ara regulon of E. coli. We have examined this phenomenon in detail, utilizing fusions between the structural gene for beta-galactosidase
The fimD gene of Escherichia coli K12 was shown to be necessary for surface localization of type 1 fimbriae, since deletion of the gene resulted in a virtually bald phenotype. The FimD protein was found to be located in the outer membrane. Expressed alone, this protein had a very deleterious effect
