Specialized transducing phages containing the thr-trpR region of the Escherichia coli chromosome were derived from a strain with lambda prophage inserted in thr. Cloning of segments of the chromosomal deoxyribonucleic acid of one such lambda thr + trpR+ phage in various plasmid vectors established that a 1.3-kilobase BamHI fragment carried trpR+ intact. Strains with a multicopy plasmid vector containing the BamHI insert produced 20-fold-higher levels of trp aporepressor than did the wild-type strain of Escherichia coli. Similarly, induction of lambda thr + trpR+ lysogens resulted in increased aporepressor levels. The 1.3-kilobase trpR+ BamHI fragment was inserted in either orientation downstream from lambda pLN in a plasmid vector in which transcription from lambda pL was under the control of a temperature-sensitive lambda repressor. Induction established the orientation of transcription of trpR and led to the production of 100-fold-increased levels of trp aporepressor. A presumptive 23,500-dalton trpR+ polypeptide was detected by using lambda pLNtrpR+ plasmid deoxyribonucleic acid in a cell-free transcription-translation system. |
