Abstract | An experimental system was designed to measure in vivo termination efficiency (TE) of the Rho-independent terminator and position-function relations were quantified for the terminator tR2 in Escherichia coli. The terminator function was almost completely repressed when tR2 was located several base pairs downstream from the gene, and TE gradually increased to maximum values with the increasing distance between the gene and terminator. This TE-distance relation reflected a stochastic coupling of the ribosome and RNA polymerase (RNAP). Terminators located in the first 100 bp of the coding region can function efficiently. However, functional repression was observed when the terminator was located in the latter part of the coding region, and the degree of repression was determined by transcriptional and translational dynamics. These results may help to elucidate mechanisms of Rho-independent termination and reveal genomic locations of terminators and functions of the sequence that precedes terminators. These observations may have important applications in synthetic biology. |
