Transcriptional regulation of comC: evidence for a competence-specific transcription factor in Bacillus subtilis.
Journal of bacteriology - 1 Jul 1990
Mohan S, Dubnau D
Abstract excerpt
comC specifies a protein product that is required for genetic competence in Bacillus subtilis. The probable transcriptional start site of comC has been localized by high-resolution primer extension analysis and shown to be preceded by an appropriately positioned sequence that resembles the consensus promoter for the sigma A form of RNA polymerase. Low-resolution S1 nuclease transcription mapping was used to...
