Gly-dependency was studied using a luciferase reporter gene system. Maximal reporter gene expression happened in the presence of low Gly concentrations. RT-qPCR showed that in the presence of Gly (≥1 mM), expression of the gene was downregulated. Growth in the presence of 0.1 mM Gly led to the production of a full-length transcript. We conclude that the Gly riboswitch in S. pyogenes represses gene expression in the presence of high Gly concentrations.", school="Universit{\"a}t Rostock", note="vorgelegt von Afsaneh Khani aus dem Iran", note="Dissertation Universit{\"a}t Rostock 2018", doi="10.18453/rosdok_id00002093", url="http://rosdok.uni-rostock.de/resolve/urn/urn:nbn:de:gbv:28-diss2018-0087-1", url="https://nbn-resolving.org/urn:nbn:de:gbv:28-diss2018-0087-1", url="https://d-nb.info/1293652717/34", url="https://doi.org/10.18453/rosdok_id00002093", language="English" }
