Abstract excerpt
There are three members of the HtrA family of serine proteases, YkdA, YvtA, and YyxA, encoded in the chromosome of Bacillus subtilis. In this study, we report on the promoter structure and regulation of ykdA expression. The ykdA gene is heat inducible, exhibiting a biphasic pattern of expression during a 60-min interval after heat shock. Increased expression after heat shock occurs at the transcriptional level....
