Abstract excerpt
The possibility of application of the bioluminescence method (Lux-test) for studying in vivo functional activity of Escherichia coli protease Lon and its mutants was demonstrated. This assay is based on the capacity of protease Lon and its mutant forms for specific degradation of the LuxR protein, a positive transcriptional activator of the right operon luxICDABE from the marine bacterium Vibrio fischeri, and...
