The tyrT operon is a series of genes encoding the tRNA for tyrosine in Escherichia coli. It is activated in response to amino acid starvation. [1]
The tyrT operon consists of an upstream activation sequence, the gene for the tyrosine tRNA called tRNA1Tyr, and an RNA called rtT RNA which has an unknown function. [1]
Transcription of the tyrT operon is activated by the stringent response. [1] Binding of the FIS protein to the operon's upstream activation sequence tightly bends the DNA, promoting transcription. [2]
