The DNA sequence of the Salmonella typhimurium metA control region is presented.
S1 nuclease
mapping was used to determine the transcription initiation site. By measuring beta-galactosidase levels in Escherichia coli strains lysogenized with lambda phage carrying a metA-lacZ gene fusion, the MetR protein was shown to activate the metA gene.
Homocysteine
, an intermediate in methionine biosynthesis, plays a negative role in the MetR-mediated activation mechanism. Gel mobility shift assays and DNase I protection experiments showed that the MetR protein binds to a DNA fragment carrying the metA control region and protects a 26-bp region beginning 9 bp upstream of the -35 promoter sequence.
