The level of the isoleucine and valine (Ilv)_enzymes specified by theilvBandilvGEDAoperons is reduced in integration host factor mutants (himAandhimD) ofEscherichia coliK-12. Growth inhibition of these strains in minimal medium can be explained by the decreased amounts of one of the Ilv enzymes, acetohydroxy acid synthase I (AHASI). No growth inhibition, or reduction in AHASI activity, was found in ahimAderivative of a mutant strain containing high constitutive levels of AHASI. A strong correlation was observed inhimAstrains between the reduced amount of the Ilv enzymes and of Ilv-specific messenger RNA. These data suggest that integration hos factor may be a positive effector for transcription of theilvBandilvGEDAoperons.
