Abstract excerpt
In Salmonella enterica, loss of RNA chaperon Hfq promotes proteolytic cleavage of anti-sigma(E) factor RseA leading to the constitutive induction of the sigma(E)-dependent envelope stress response. Seeking to identify the source of the inducing signal, in the present study we measured RseA cleavage and sigma(E)-dependent transcription in strains lacking relevant outer membrane protein (omp) genes. We found...
