Abstract excerpt

The differentiating bacterium Caulobacter crescentus has been studied extensively to understand how a relatively simple life form can govern the timing of expression of genes needed for the production of stage-specific structures. In this study, a clone containing the 5.3-kb flaP region was shown...
