Abstract excerpt
Heat shock gene expression is regulated by the cellular level and activity of the stress sigma factor σ(32) in Gram-negative bacteria. A toluene-resistant, temperature-sensitive derivative strain of Pseudomonas putida KT2442, designated KT2442-R2 (R2), accumulated several heat shock proteins (HSP...
