We investigated the regulation of the livJ and livKHMGF operons, which are involved in branched-chain amino acid high-affinity transport in Salmonella typhimurium. When livJ was fused to lacZ at the second codon of livJ to make a livJ-lacZ protein fusion, expression from the livJ promoter was not repressed even under repressing growth conditions; however, expression of an analogous construct of livK-lacZ was repressed. When livJ was fused to lacZ at the twelfth codon of livJ, the expression level under unrepressing growth conditions was elevated, resulting in apparent repressibility of the livJ-lacZ protein fusion. Expression from the livJ-lacZ operon fusion, in which livJ was fused to lacZ 159 bp downstream from the A of the start codon of livJ, was relatively normal under unrepressing growth conditions. Deletion analysis and site-directed base-substitution analysis strongly suggested that cis-acting element for regulation of livJ transcription, 5'-GGCAGGATGTATCG-3', starting at +21 and ending at +34 downstream from the A of the start codon of livJ, was present in the N-terminal coding region of livJ.
