- W1552348824 abstract "The LexA repressor from Escherichia coli regulates the transcription of about 20 different genes upon binding to single or multiple operators. In this work we study the interaction of LexA with the control region of the caa gene (coding for the bacterial toxin colicin A) that contains two operators (O1 and O2) which overlap by at least 2 base pairs relevant for sequence specific DNA recognition. This arrangement raises the question of how the LexA molecules which bind to the central overlapping part of the two operators avoid steric clashes and further, of whether the interaction of LexA with the two operators is cooperative or not. To address these questions we have constructed two mutant operators (O1+O2- and O1-O2+) for which the two most strongly conserved base pairs in each of the external operator half-sites have been mutated. Using methylation interference with the complex formation of LexA with the wild-type and these two mutant operators we could show: 1) that the two mutant operators behave symmetrically in that the methylation of one crucial guanine base in both operator half-sites interferes strongly with complex formation, 2) but that in the wild-type operator (containing four functional operator half-sites) only the two external half-operators give rise to interference if this crucial guanine base is methylated, whereas methylation of the two equivalent guanine bases within the two central (overlapping) operator half-sites does not lead to interference with the formation of a complex where both operators are occupied simultaneously. These data suggest that the centrally bound LexA molecules adopt a somewhat different binding mode than those bound to the external half-operators in order to avoid steric clashes and/or to optimize protein-protein contacts which are likely to be at the origin of the binding cooperativity that we could demonstrate by quantitative DNase I footprinting and gel retardation experiments. While the methylation interference experiments revealed a non-equivalence for the binding of externally and centrally bound LexA molecules, both methylation protection and hydroxyl radical footprinting were unable to reveal this difference, suggesting that the difference between the two binding modes should be fairly subtle." @default.
