Abstract excerpt
Transcription from promoter Pu of the upper catabolic operon of the Pseudomonas putida TOL plasmid which specifies conversion of toluene/xylenes to benzoate/toluates is activated by the TOL-encoded regulator XylR protein in the presence of substrates of the catabolic pathway and in conjunction with the sigma 54(NtrA)-containing form of RNA polymerase. This regulatory circuit was faithfully reproduced in...
