Disease relevance of cbbI

 

High impact information on cbbI

  • It was found that 103 bp of sequence upstream of the cbbFI transcription start was sufficient to confer low levels of regulated cbbI promoter expression; this activity was dependent on the presence of an intact cbbR gene [1].
  • A number of cbbFI::lacZ translational fusion plasmids containing various lengths of sequence 5' to the form I (cbbI) Calvin-Benson-Bassham cycle operon (cbbFIcbbPIcbbAIcbbLIcbbSI) of Rhodobacter sphaeroides were constructed [1].
 

Associations of cbbI with chemical compounds

  • The current investigation indicates that in addition to its role in the regulation of photosystem biosynthesis, regB (prrB) of R. sphaeroides is intimately involved in the positive regulation of the cbbI and cbbII Calvin cycle CO2 fixation operons [2].
