| Abstract | The nac gene product is a LysR regulatory protein required for nitrogen regulation of several operons from Klebsiella aerogenes and Escherichia coli. We used P22 challenge phage carrying the put control region from K. aerogenes to identify the nucleotide residues important for nitrogen assimilation control protein (NAC) binding in vivo. Mutations in an asymmetric 30-bp region prevented DNA binding by NAC. Gel retardation experiments confirmed that NAC specifically binds to this sequence in vitro, but NAC does not bind to the corresponding region from the put operon of Salmonella typhimurium, which is not regulated by NAC. |
