AU - Thomas, Christopher E. AU - Elkins, Christopher T2 - Gene AB - Iron regulation in a growing number of bacterial species is being attributed to the presence of a fur (ferric uptake regulation) regulatory system. In the presence of iron, Fur acts as a classical negative regulator, binding conserved sequences within the promoter of iron-repressible genes and blocking transcription. Western blot analysis utilizing Escherichia coli Fur antisera detected a band of approximately 17 kDa in soluble extracts of Haemophilus ducreyi. Additionally, Southern blot hybridization of the H. ducreyi chromosome with a meningococcal fur probe indicated that H. ducreyi might contain a fur homolog. This putative fur homolog was cloned into the E. coli vector pACYC184. This clone was capable of repressing expression of a normally Fur-regulated lacZ fusion in the fur-background of E. coli strain H1780. The deduced amino acid sequence shows H. ducreyi fur to be 54% identical and 73% similar to E. coli fur, containing putative DNA-binding and metal-binding domains. These data demonstrate that H. ducreyi has a functional fur system.

AU - Orozco, B M AU - Hanley-Bowdoin, L T2 - Journal of virology AB - The genome of the geminivirus tomato golden mosaic virus (TGMV) consists of two single-stranded circular DNAs, A and B, that replicate through a rolling-circle mechanism in nuclei of infected plant cells. The TGMV origin of replication is located in a conserved 5' intergenic region and includes at least two functional elements: the origin recognition site of the essential viral replication protein, AL1, and a sequence motif with the potential to form a hairpin or cruciform structure. To address the role of the hairpin motif during TGMV replication, we constructed a series of B-component mutants that resolved sequence changes from structural alterations of the motif. Only those mutant B DNAs that retained the capacity to form the hairpin structure replicated to wild-type levels in tobacco protoplasts when the viral replication proteins were provided in trans from a plant expression cassette. In contrast, the same B DNAs replicated to significantly lower levels in transient assays that included replicating, wild-type TGMV A DNA. These data established that the hairpin structure is essential for TGMV replication, whereas its sequence affects the efficiency of replication. We also showed that TGMV AL1 functions as a site-specific endonuclease in vitro and mapped the cleavage site to the loop of the hairpin. In vitro cleavage analysis of two TGMV B mutants with different replication phenotypes indicated that there is a correlation between the two assays for origin activity. These results suggest that the in vivo replication results may reflect structural and sequence requirements for DNA cleavage during initiation of rolling-circle replication.

AU - Settlage, S B AU - Miller, A B AU - Hanley-Bowdoin, L T2 - Journal of virology AB - Geminiviruses are small DNA viruses that replicate in the nuclei of infected plant cells. The closely related geminiviruses tomato golden mosaic virus and bean golden mosaic virus each encode a protein, AL1, that catalyzes the initiation of rolling-circle replication. Both viruses also specify a second replication protein, AL3, that greatly enhances the level of viral DNA accumulation. Using recombinant proteins produced in a baculovirus expression system, we showed that AL1 copurifies with a protein fusion of glutathione S-transferase (GST) and AL1, independent of the GST domain. Similarly, authentic AL3 cofractionates with a GST-AL3 fusion protein. These results demonstrated that both AL1 and AL3 form oligomers. Immunoprecipitation of protein extracts from insect cells expressing both AL1 and AL3 showed that the two proteins also complex with each other. None of the protein interactions displayed virus specificity; the tomato and bean golden mosaic virus proteins complexed with each other. The addition of heterologous replication proteins had no effect on the efficiency of geminivirus replication in transient-replication assays, suggesting that heteroprotein complexes might be functional. The significance of these protein interactions is discussed with respect to geminivirus replication in plant cells.

AU - Allen, George C. AU - Hall, Gerald AU - Spiker, Steven T2 - Genomes of Plants and Animals AB - Many of the questions we have about how biological systems work are ultimately questions about the regulation of gene expression. For this reason, the control of transcription is fundamental and has received well-deserved attention. From a simplistic point of view, transcription can be though of as being regulated at two levels. The first level (coarse control) involves access of RNA polymerase and transacting factors to the specific DNA sequences with which they interact. Access is a function of chromatin structure. In chromatin fibers of both condensed metaphase chromosomes and interphase chromatin, DNA is highly compacted and essentially inaccessible to RNA polymerase and trans-acting factors. In order to make the DNA accessible, chromatin fibers must in some way take on a more open, less compact structure. Once an open (transcriptionally poised) chromatin structure is obtained, further regulation of transcription involving availability and interactions of transacting factors (fine control), come into play. For reviews see Paranjape et al. (1994) and Reeves (1984).

AU - Thompson, W. F. T2 - Plant Physiology AB - DNA sequences called matrix attachment regions (MARs) or scaffold attachment regions (SARs) have recently attracted much attention because of their perceived capacity to increase levels of transgene expression and reduce transformant-to-transformant variation of transgene expression in both plants and animals. Work with these sequences is in its early stages and data that seem to be contradictory have been presented. We do not intend to resolve these controversies here (this will be accomplished by further research). Rather, we will discuss the hypothesized role of MARs in chromatin structure, how MARs are isolated and characterized, what effects MARs have had on the expression of transgenes and the models that have been evoked to explain those effects.

(Cornaceae) and its implications for biogeography and character evolution AU - Xiang, Q.Y. AU - Brunsfeld, S.J. AU - Soltis, D.E. AU - Soltis, P.S. T2 - Systematic Botany AB - Chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) restriction site analysis was used to elucidate phylogenetic relationships within the taxonomically controversial genus, Cornus. Twenty-nine species representing all major morphological subgroups of the genus were analyzed with 21 restriction endonucleases. Major lineages within Cornus identified by the cpDNA restriction site data are highly concordant with those suggested by both rbcL sequences and morphology. Relationships among these lineages are well-resolved by the restriction site data. The genus diverged early into two major clades: the blue-fruited group bearing blue or white fruits and the red-fruited group bearing red fruits. The blue-fruited clade further comprises two lineages: the alternate-leaved group and the opposite-leaved group. The red-fruited clade is composed of three lineages: the cornelian cherries, the dwarf dogwoods, and the big-bracted dogwoods, with the latter two as sister- groups. The cpDNA restriction site data also correlate closely with the evolution of chromosome number, morphology, and phytochemistry. Most notably, the chromosome number of n = 10 evolved twice in Cornuis, and the small, non-petaloid bracts in C. disciflora apparently represent a reversal to the non-showy state. Furthermore, the presence of iridoids in the red-fruited dogwoods apparently is a retention of the plesiomor- phic condition.
