Abstract excerpt
Members of a family of ATP-dependent proteases related to Lon from Escherichia coli are present in most prokaryotes and eukaryotes. These proteases are generally reported to be heat induced, and various regulatory systems have been described. The authors cloned and disrupted the lon gene and studied the regulation of its expression in Streptomyces lividans. lon is negatively regulated by the HspR/HAIR...
