Article

A regulatory mutant of the trimethylamine N-oxide reductase of Escherichia coli K12.

FEMS microbiology letters - 1 Mar 1991

Pascal M C, Lepelletier M, Giordano G, Chippaux M

Abstract excerpt

A mutant of Escherichia coli was isolated in which the trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) reductase activity is lost and the inducible TMAO reductase protein is absent. The lack of the gene product specifically prevents the expression of torA::lacZ fusion indicating a transcriptional control of torA,...
