摘要：

The Azospirillum brasilense trpE gene has been isolated by DNA hybridization and by genetic complementation of an Escherichia coli trpE deletion mutant. DNA sequence analysis of a 3.1-kb PstI restriction fragment of A. brasilense revealed the presence of an open reading frame encoding a putative TrpE(G) fusion protein. Previously an A. brasilense clone containing trpGDC was identified (Zimmer et al. Mol Gen Genet 229:41-51, 1991). It can, therefore, be concluded that A. brasilense contains two trpG genes. A putative leader peptide is found upstream of trpE(G), containing three consecutive tryptophan residues. Putative terminator and anti-terminator loops have also been identified. The LLESX10S motif, which is responsible for feedback inhibition by tryptophan in other TrpE proteins, is absent in the A. brasilense TrpE(G) fused protein.
