Abstract excerpt
We have characterized flbF, a key locus located at the top of the flagellar gene hierarchy of Caulobacter crescentus. This gene is required for transcription from sigma 54 promoters of fla genes expressed late in the cell cycle. We have determined the nucleotide sequence of the gene, mapped the 5...
