The Escherichia coli rpoS-dependent htrC gene is not involved in the heat shock response.

Abstract excerpt

We found that a new mutant with a deletion/replacement of the Escherichia coli K-12 htrC gene, a gene previously reported to be required for growth at elevated temperatures, is not temperature sensitive. Furthermore, the original mutants, kindly provided by the original authors, although temperature sensitive, do not have mutations in the open reading frame designated htrC. We found that htrC requires RpoS for...
