Escherichia coli RNA polymerase recognition of a sigma70-dependent promoter requiring a -35 DNA element and an extended -10 TGn motif.

Abstract excerpt

Escherichia coli sigma70-dependent promoters have typically been characterized as either -10/-35 promoters, which have good matches to both the canonical -10 and the -35 sequences or as extended -10 promoters (TGn/-10 promoters), which have the TGn motif and an excellent match to the -10 consensus sequence. We report here an investigation of a promoter, P(minor), that has a nearly perfect match to the -35...
