Sequence and characterization of pvuIIR, the PvuII endonuclease gene, and of pvuIIC, its regulatory gene.

ABSTRACT

An open reading frame partially overlaps pvuIIR, and genetic evidence implies that this open reading frame, named pvuIIC, specifies a positive regulator of pvuIIR (T. Tao, J. C. Bourne, and R. M. Blumenthal, J. Bacteriol. 173:1367-1375, 1991). Inducible constructs of pvuIIC produced a protein of the expected size. The site of C.PvuII action appears to lie within pvuIIC itself; thus, pvuIIC may be a self-contained regulatory cassette.
