[Regulation of purine biosynthetic genes expression in Salmonella typhimurium].
To study binding funtion of 4 consensus bases in 16 bp PUR box with purR protein, the directed site mutation for each was carried out, which mutate from C to G, A to G, A to G, T to C, respectively. Gel retardation showed that the PUR box carrying a reserved mutation could not bind with purR protein. It suggested that all these consensus base pairs are necessary to hold the normal binding function of PUR box with purR protein.
