Transcriptional regulation of tyrosine phenol-lyase gene of Erwinia herbicola AJ2985.
Induction and repression of tyrosine phenol-lyase (TPL; EC 4.1.99.2) of Erwinia herbicola AJ2985 were examined on the transcriptional level and it was shown that transcription of tpl was increased by the addition of tyrosine and decreased by the addition of glucose in the medium. The 5' flanking region of its gene, tpl, was analyzed and its transcriptional start point was determined. A presumed -35, -10 promoter region, TyrR box, and operator-like region were also found in this region.
