| 8 | Crystal structure of the met repressor-operator complex at 2.8Å resolution reveals DNA recognition by β -strands |
| 9 | The crystal structure of the met repressor-operator complex shows two dimeric repressor molecules bound to adjacent sites 8 base pairs apart on an 18-base-pair DNA fragment . |
| 10 | Expression of many of the structural genes in the methionine biosynthetic pathway of E. coli ( reviewed in ref. 18 ) is controlled largely by the met repressor protein , the product of the metJ gene . |
| 11 | The met repressor protein was overexpressed and purified as before . |
| 12 | The bends lie at the centres of the met boxes , and correspond to compression of the major groove to a width of 9.4 around the bound repressor β -ribbons , and opening of the opposite minor groove to 8.3 . |
| 13 | Bending is accompanied by an increase of these parameters to about 5° at the met box centres , and higher values towards the ends of the duplex . |
| 14 | This interaction mediates recognition of A1 and T8 of the met box , but probably only in the presence of adjacent met boxes with bound repressors . |
| 15 | The central bases of the met box , C4 and G5 make no direct contacts to the protein , but form the centre of the 25° bend in the DNA , which allows it to wrap tightly round the repressor . |
| 16 | The met repressor may serve as a useful model for such systems . |
| 17 | The non-crystallographic 2-fold axis of the repressor coincides with the central 2-fold of the met box . |
| 18 | The sequence numbering of the met operator is as the description of the DNA fragment in the crystal , where bases 1–8 and 9–16 correspond to consensus met boxes |
| 19 | Cell extracts were prepared by sonication , treated with DNaseI to remove nucleic acids and the met repressor concentration estimated using a combination of the Bradford assay and SDS-PAGE . |
| 20 | Autoradiographs of the gels were then analysed by densitometry and the met repressor protein concentration at which 50% of the input DNA was retarded from its unshifted position was estimated . |
