In cyanobacteria Nostoc, the genetics and biochemistry of exopolysaccharide (EPS) biosynthesis have not been thoroughly investigated. To identify the transcription factors that may regulate EPS biosynthesis genes and to understand the relationship between the EPS biosynthesis and the environment factors, in this study, we carried out thein silico promoter analysis of ten EPS biosynthesis-related genes in Nostoc punctiforme ATCC 29133, whose genomic sequence has been determined. Total 15 putative transcription factor biding sites were found in the ten promoter regions. Three transcription factors, ArgR, Fnr, and LexA, were predicted to be the most possible ones by comparing binding site sequence similarity between E. coli K12 and N. punctiforme. Because no ArgR and Fnr homologs were found in N. punctiforme genome by the Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST) using the amino acid sequences of E. coli K12 ArgR, Fnr and LexA as query sequences, we predicted that N. Punctiforme EPS biosynthetic genes may be regulated by the transcription factor LexA and its associated environmental factors such as UV light.
