Abstract excerpt
A previous microarray analysis suggested that multicopy yccH, encoding a function-unknown response regulator, enhances expression of natAB, which encodes a two-gene ATP-binding cassette transporter involved in the extrusion of sodium ions. The two-component regulatory system YccG-YccH was therefore renamed NatK-NatR. Here, this observation was confirmed by a lacZ fusion analysis using a strain carrying natA-lacZ....
