FIG. 5.

(A) The expression of ssu-lacZ is negatively controlled by Spx in the presence of sulfate. The strains bearing amyE::ssu21-289-lacZ (39) in a wild-type, spx, or rpoAcxs-1 background were grown in TSS containing either sulfate, cysteine, or methionine as the sole sulfur source. Samples were collected and assayed for β-galactosidase activity as described for Fig. 3. Lanes 1, 4, and 7, ORB4891 (ssu21-289-lacZ); lanes 2, 5, and 8, ORB4896 (ssu21-289-lacZ rpoAcxs-1); lanes 3, 6, and 9, ORB4898 (ssu21-289-lacZ spx). (B) The expression of yxeL-lacZ is negatively controlled by Spx in the presence of sulfate. The strains bearing yxeL-lacZ in a wild-type, spx, or rpoAcxs-1 background were grown in TSS containing either sulfate, cysteine, or methionine as the sole sulfur source. Samples were collected and assayed for β-galactosidase activity as for Fig. 3. Lanes 1, 4, and 7, ORB4269 (yxeL-lacZ); lanes 2, 5, and 8, ORB4785 (yxeL-lacZ spx); lanes 3, 6, and 9, ORB4786 (yxeL-lacZ rpoAcxs-1).
