Abstract excerpt
Expression of the Escherichia coli outer membrane porins, OmpC and OmpF, is regulated in response to changes in the medium osmolarity through the functions of the regulatory factors, EnvZ and OmpR. A 3.0 kilobase pair DNA fragment cloned from E. coli is able phenotypically to suppress the defect in ompC and ompF expression caused by an envZ deletion mutation, provided that a certain gene located in this fragment...
