Abstract excerpt
Transcription from the dctA gene, which encodes an organic acid transporter in the root-colonizing bacterium Pseudomonas chlororaphis O6, is under complex regulatory control. Promoter sequence analysis revealed an RpoN binding site. The regulation of transcript accumulation by the level of ammonium ions in the growth medium confirmed RpoN regulation, even in the presence of glucose. A dctA mutant colonized...
