Abstract excerpt
Two genes, epeR and epeA, are located downstream of argH in the Streptomyces clavuligerus genome. EpeR belongs to the TetR family of transcriptional regulators. It is homologous to PqrA of Streptomyces coelicolor (74.3% identity) and to NfxB of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (30.9% identity). EpeA encodes a protein with 14 transmembrane spanning domains (TMS) of the major facilitator superfamily. It shares 68.9% identity...
