In Escherichia coli, the effects of several 3'-5' exonucleases on RecA loading were studied by assaying RecA-GFP foci formation. Mutations in xthA (ExoIII), xseAB (ExoVII), xni (ExoIX), exoX (ExoX) and tatD (ExoXI) increased the number of RecA-GFP foci twofold to threefold in a population of log phase cells grown in minimal medium. These increases depend on xonA. Epistasis analysis shows that ExoVII, ExoX, ExoIX and ExoXI function in a common pathway, distinct from ExoIII (and ExoI is upstream of both pathways). It is shown (paradoxically) that in xthA mutants, RecA-GFP loading is predominantly RecBCD-dependent and that xthA recB double mutants are viable. Experiments show that while log phase xthA cells have twofold more double-stranded breaks (DSBs) than wild type, they do not induce the SOS response. The increase in RecA loading is independent of the base excision repair (BER) proteins Nth, MutM and Nei. It is proposed that log phase cells produce DSBs that do not induce the SOS response. Furthermore, ExoI, ExoIII and the other 3'-5' exonucleases process these DSBs, antagonizing the RecBCD pathway of RecA loading, thus regulating the availability of these substrates for recombination.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18034795?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chen, Meng</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lopes, John M</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Multiple basic helix-loop-helix proteins regulate expression of the ENO1 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Eukaryot Cell</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Eukaryotic Cell</style></alt-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Basic Helix-Loop-Helix Transcription Factors</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">beta-Galactosidase</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chromatin Immunoprecipitation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">E-Box Elements</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Epistasis, Genetic</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Evolution, Molecular</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gene Expression Regulation, Fungal</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genes, Dominant</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Models, Biological</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mutation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Phosphopyruvate Hydratase</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Promoter Regions, Genetic</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Recombinant Fusion Proteins</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Saccharomyces cerevisiae</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Saccharomyces cerevisiae Proteins</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2007</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2007 May</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">786-96</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) eukaryotic transcription factors have the ability to form multiple dimer combinations. This property, together with limited DNA-binding specificity for the E box (CANNTG), makes them ideally suited for combinatorial control of gene expression. We tested the ability of all nine Saccharomyces cerevisiae bHLH proteins to regulate the enolase-encoding gene ENO1. ENO1 was known to be activated by the bHLH protein Sgc1p. Here we show that expression of an ENO1-lacZ reporter was also regulated by the other eight bHLH proteins, namely, Ino2p, Ino4p, Cbf1p, Rtg1p, Rtg3p, Pho4p, Hms1p, and Ygr290wp. ENO1-lacZ expression was also repressed by growth in inositol-choline-containing medium. Epistatic analysis and chromatin immunoprecipitation experiments showed that regulation by Sgc1p, Ino2p, Ino4p, and Cbf1p and repression by inositol-choline required three distal E boxes, E1, E2, and E3. The pattern of bHLH binding to the three E boxes and experiments with two dominant-negative mutant alleles of INO4 and INO2 support the model that bHLH dimer selection affects ENO1-lacZ expression. These results support the general model that bHLH proteins can coordinate different biological pathways via multiple mechanisms.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17351075?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sandler, S J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Clark, A J</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">RecOR suppression of recF mutant phenotypes in Escherichia coli K-12.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">J Bacteriol</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">J.

Using plasmid derivatives that overexpress combinations of the recO+ and recR+ genes, we tested the hypothesis that high-level expression of recO+ and recR+ (recOR) in vivo will indirectly suppress the recF mutant phenotypes mentioned above. We found that overexpression of just recR+ from the plasmid will partially suppress both phenotypes. Expression of the chromosomal recO+ gene is essential for the recR+ suppression. Hence we call this RecOR suppression of recF mutant phenotypes. RecOR suppression of SOS induction is more efficient with recO+ expression from a plasmid than with recO+ expression from the chromosome. This is not true for RecOR suppression of UV sensitivity (the two are equal). Comparison of RecOR suppression with the suppression caused by recA801 and recA803 shows that RecOR suppression of UV sensitivity is more effective than recA803 suppression and that RecOR suppression of UV sensitivity, like recA801 suppression, requires recJ+. We present a model that explains the data and proposes a function for the recFOR epistasis group in the induction of the SOS response and recombinational DNA repair.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">12</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8206844?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record></records></xml>
