- 2958298..2960229 threonyl-tRNA synthetase COG0441 thrS-BAC thrS-LAB thrS-STA thrZ-BAC  

Operon evidence: Northern blotting (2.3 kb transcript)
Reference: Putzer H, et al. (1992), Grundy FJ & Henkin TM (1993), Wipat A, et al. (1996)
Comments: Runoff transcription, Northern blotting, and S1 nuclease mapping also showed a 280 bp transcript, presumably due to transcriptional termination at the stem-loop in front of thrS caused by binding of uncharged tRNA-Thr to the T-box sequence motif. The tRNA anticodon binds to the ACC codon in the sequence UUUACCGCC in the thrS leader mRNA.
