We have employed equilibrium dialysis to help study the mechanism by which the unliganded Escherichia coli trp aporepressor is activated by L-tryptophan to the liganded trp repressor. By measuring the relative affinity of L-tryptophan and various tryptophan analogues for the
Shoot branching and growth are controlled by phytohormones such as auxin and other components in Arabidopsis. We identified a mutant (igi1) showing decreased height and bunchy branching patterns. The phenotypes reverted to the wild type in response to RNA interference
In addition to the main catabolic routes of tryptophan (Trp), there exist minor and less thoroughly investigated pathways; one of these leads to indolylacrylic acid (IAcrA). IAcrA is a plant growth hormone, whereas its biological role in animals is still
An approach to the optimization of product yield in an inducible inclusion body-producing system is presented. Following induction by indoleacrylic acid (IAA) of a trpLE-HIVgp41 fusion protein, we found a large increase in culture turbidity and single-cell dry weight. After

trp repressor of Escherichia coli controls transcription initiation in operons involved in tryptophan biosynthesis by binding to operator sequences within the regulated promoters. Naturally occurring operators are homologous over an 18-base pair region and display dyad symmetry. We have examined
