Abstract excerpt
Transcription initiation by the stress-associated sigma(S)-containing RNA polymerase holoenzyme (E sigma(S)) in Escherichia coli is often subject to complex regulation that involves multiple additional regulators and histone-like proteins. csiD is a stationary phase-inducible sigma(S)-dependent gene in E. coli that requires activation by cAMP-CRP (bound to a site centred at -68.5 nucleotides upstream of the...
