Journal of bacteriology - 1 May 2001
Lucas R L, Lee C A
Abstract excerpt
Sequences between -332 and -39 upstream of the hilA promoter are required for repression of hilA. An unidentified repressor is thought to bind these upstream repressing sequences (URS) to inhibit hilA expression. Two AraC-like transcriptional regulators encoded on Salmonella pathogenicity island 1 (SPI1), HilC and HilD, bind to the URS to counteract the repression of hilA. The URS is required for regulation of...
