The nucleotide sequence of a 1.26‐kb pair DNA fragment containing the structural gene for Escherichia coli initiation factor IF3 has been determined. An open reading frame of 540 nucleotides is found at the position predicted by genetic studies. The amino‐acid sequence deduced from the DNA sequence accounts for a molecular weight 20 530. The important feature of the coding DNA sequence is the presence of AUU as the translational initiator codon. It is 11 bases downstream of the center of a GGAGG sequence, which can strongly pair with the sequence CCUCC near the 3′ terminus of 16S rRNA. The primary DNA sequence in the region of the AUU initiator codon and its role in compensating a reduced codon‐anticodon interaction in initiation complex formation are discussed.

The deoC‐deoA intercistronic region from Escherichia coli has been characterized by DNA and protein sequencing. This region consists of 129 bp and includes a regulatory element, which has also been found in other operons containing large intercistronic regions. Our results suggest that the regulatory element functions as a transcriptional attenuator, and therefore it seems likely that the primary role of this element is to effect differential expression of operon genes. Furthermore, we have unambiguously shown that the initiation codon for the deoA gene is UUG.

FS9 mouse sarcoma cells were previously shown to be highly invasive when confronted with chicken heart fibroblasts using Abercrombie's confronted explant technique. This invasion could be inhibited by addition to the assay of Fab fragments of a monoclonal antibody directed against p37, a protein associated with the surface of FS9 cells. We have cloned and sequenced the gene for p37. We show that it originates from Mycoplasma hyorhinis and that UGA is a tryptophan codon in this organism. We present evidence that the p37 gene is part of an operon encoding two additional proteins which are highly similar to components of the periplasmic binding‐protein‐dependent transport systems of Gram‐negative bacteria, and we suggest that p37 is part of a homologous, high‐affinity transport system in M. hyorhinis, a Gram‐positive bacterium. We discuss the influence of p37 and M. hyorhinis on contact inhibition of locomotion of mammalian cells.
