Abstract excerpt
In Bacillus subtilis, motility and chemotaxis require the expression of hag, which encodes flagellin. This gene is transcribed by the sigma(D) form of RNA polymerase and is regulated by a group of proteins called transition state regulators (TSRs). Our studies show that hag transcription is negatively regulated by the transition state regulator ScoC, by binding to its promoter. Furthermore, ScoC, indirectly, also...
