Abstract excerpt
The extracellular nuclease of Serratia marcescens is regulated in a complex fashion. Unlike most catabolic enzymes, it appears not to be substrate regulated. However we have shown it to be regulated by an SOS-like system in S. marcescens. Additionally nuclease expression is regulated in a growth-phase-dependent manner. In this work we demonstrate that growth-phase-dependent regulation is at the transcriptional...
