Levy, Stuart B., 1938, Udall, Stewart L, Corrigan, Maureen, WHYY Public Media, Miller, Danny (Radio producer), Gross, Terry, Levy, Stuart B., 1938, Udall, Stewart L, Corrigan, Maureen, WHYY Public Media, Miller, Danny (Radio producer), and Gross, Terry

Abstract

Since its national debut in 1987, Fresh Air with Terry Gross has been a highly acclaimed and much adored weekday magazine among public radio listeners. Each week, nearly 4.8 million people turn to Peabody Award-winning host Terry Gross for insightful conversations with the leading voices in contemporary arts and issues. The renowned program reaches a global audience, with over 620 public radio stations broadcasting Fresh Air, and 3 million podcast downloads each week. Fresh Air has broken the mold of 'talk show' by weaving together superior journalism and intimate storytelling from modern-day intellectuals, politicians and artists alike. Through probing questions and careful research, Gross's interviews are lauded for revealing a fresh perspective on cultural icons and trends. Her thorough conversations are often complemented by commentary from well-known contributors. Fresh Air is produced at WHYY-FM in Philadelphia and broadcast nationally by NPR., INT. 1: DR. STUART LEVY is a professor at Tufts University Medical School, and has just written a book, "The Antibiotic Paradox: How Miracle Drugs Are Destroying the Miracle," (Plenum). This book looks at the threat of antibiotic-resistant bacteria that are resulting from over-prescription of antibiotics. Dr. Levy is recognized internationally as an expert on resistance and as a critic of the widespread misuse of antibiotics. He is also president of the International Alliance for Prudent Use of Antibiotics. He has been profiled in "The New Yorker", and has also been quoted in Time Newsweek, The New York Times, and the Washington Post. INT. 2: STEWART UDALL served three terms in Congress, and as Secretary of the Interior under Presidents Kennedy and Johnson. He is the author of a new book, "The Myths of August", (Pantheon) which chronicles his struggle as one of the first lawyers to represent thousands of Americans who were injured or killed by the testing of atomic weapons. Udall spent years investigating and litigating cases filed by Southwestern families who had been harmed by atmospheric testing of atomic bombs, and by families of Navajo men who developed lung cancer after mining Uranium for the Government. His book, which has been heralded by "The New York Times" condemns the Government for deeming nuclear testing safe, and ignoring the damage done by downwinds nuclear fallout.

189. Amino acid residues involved in inactivation of the Escherichia coli multidrug resistance repressor MarR by salicylate, 2,4-dinitrophenol, and plumbagin.

Abstract

MarR is the dedicated autorepressor of the mar RAB operon found in seven genera of the Enterobacteraceae. The MarA transcriptional regulator directly activates numerous genes involved in multidrug resistance and other environmental responses. MarR is inactivated by certain phenolic ligands, such as salicylate, by an unknown mechanism. Our recent work has shown that several amino acid residues of Escherichia coli MarR affecting ligand binding are located between the dimerization and DNA-binding domains. To further characterize the ligand-binding region of MarR, we have now examined 7 point mutants generated by random mutagenesis and 11 site-directed alanine replacement mutants for inactivation by three ligands: salicylate, 2,4-dinitrophenol, and plumbagin. Inactivation of MarR was quantitated in intact cells by loss of MarR-mediated repression of a chromosomal mar-lacZ transcriptional fusion. The results showed that most of the residues important for ligand effectiveness lay in the α1 and α2 helices of MarR, between the putative DNA-binding domain and the dimerization domain of MarR, reinforcing our earlier findings. Moreover, the three ligands had different, but overlapping, sets of residues impacting their effects on MarR. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
