Abstract excerpt

L-Ribulose 5-phosphate (L-Ru5P) was identified as the primary effector molecule of L-arabinose-induced bulge formation in Escherichia coli IFO 3545 observed in nutrient broth with 5% (w/v) sodium chloride. Hyperinduction of L-arabinose isomerase was due to exogenous sodium chloride and the result...
