amiA is a negative regulator of acetamidase expression in Mycobacterium smegmatis.

BMC microbiology - 1 Jan 2001

Parish T, Turner J, Stoker N G

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The acetamidase of Mycobacterium smegmatis is a highly inducible enzyme. Expression of this enzyme is increased 100-fold when the substrate acetamide is present. The acetamidase gene is found immediately downstream of three open reading frames. Two of these are proposed to be involved in regulation. RESULTS: We constructed a deletion mutant in one of the upstream ORFs (amiA). This mutant (Mad1) showed...
