Mechanism of activation of catabolite-sensitive genes: a positive control system.

G Zubay, D Schwartz, J Beckwith.   

Abstract

Catabolite repression is defined as the inhibition of enzyme induction by glucose or related substances. In the bacterium E. coli, the effect of glucose appears to be due to a lowering of the cyclic AMP level. A DNA-directed cell-free system for beta-galactosidase synthesis has served as a model system for studying the mechanism of action of cyclic AMP. Previously, it was reported that in this system cyclic AMP is required for normal initiation of mRNA synthesis. A protein factor which acts in conjunction with the cyclic AMP has been partially purified. This protein factor has a high affinity for cyclic AMP. These and other results presented herein lead us to the conclusion that cyclic AMP and a protein factor called the catabolite gene activator protein are part of a positive control system for activating catabolite-sensitive genes.
