Gene context of O-acetyl-L-serine

  • The identity of cys1 was further demonstrated through complementation of an E. coli cysteine auxotroph, which lacks O-acetylserine (thiol) lyase, by expression of the wheat gene [26].
  • NIT3 promoter activity was strongly induced by O-acetylserine, suggesting that, as is the case with enzymes of sulphate assimilation, sulphate deficiency may be communicated to NIT3 via an increase in the level of the cysteine precursor, O-acetylserine [27].
  • The addition of O-acetyl-L-serine to the cysE strain produced a 5.5-fold increase in the rate of synthesis of cys mRNA [28].
  • In vitro transcription runoff studies with DNA template from the S. typhimurium cysJIH promoter region showed synthesis of a product originating at the major in vivo start site, which was dependent on the presence of purified cysB protein and either O-acetyl-L-serine or N-acetyl-L-serine [29].
  • We transformed two commercial strains (UCD522 and UCD713) with a plasmid overexpressing the MET17 gene, which encodes the bifunctional O-acetylserine/O-acetylhomoserine sulfhydrylase (OAS/OAH SHLase), to test the hypothesis that the level of activity of this enzyme limits reduced sulfur incorporation, leading to H(2)S release [30].
