Abstract excerpt
Arginine anaerobic catabolism occurs in Bacillus licheniformis through the arginine deiminase pathway, encoded by the gene cluster arcABDC. We report here the involvement of a new protein, ArcR, in the regulation of the pathway. ArcR is a protein of the Crp/Fnr family encoded by a gene located 109 bp downstream from arcC. It binds to a palindromic sequence, very similar to an Escherichia coli Crp binding site,...
