Abstract excerpt
NT-26 is a chemolithoautotrophic arsenite oxidizer. Understanding the mechanisms of arsenite signalling, tolerance and oxidation by NT-26 will have significant implications for its use in bioremediation and arsenite sensing. We have identified the histidine kinase (AroS) and the cognate response regulator (AroR) involved in the arsenite-dependent transcriptional regulation of the arsenite oxidase aroBA operon....
