ABSTRACT:
Publications and manuscripts which are attached and co-filed herewith are also incorporated by reference in their entirety.
The parent application discloses cold-shock proteins which are induced by cold-shock following a shift to lower temperature from physiological growth temperatures.
E. coli
was shown to grow at low temperatures after cold-shock induction. Other features of these proteins and their promoters are disclosed in the parent application.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention further describes these and other members of a family of stress-induced, in particular cold-shock induced proteins (Csp), their synthesis following a shift from physiological growth temperature of a microorganism to temperatures below physiological, nucleotide sequences of stress-induced and cold-shock genes, deduced amino acid sequences thereof and cold-shock induced and other promoters. The invention also describes the expression of proteins other than the cold-shock proteins under the direction of cold-shock promoters. Various utilities of the cold-shock proteins and promoters are described.
