Abstract excerpt
We previously showed, using a single-copy papBAp-lac fusion (previously designated papBA-lac), that pyelonephritis-associated pili (pap) pilin gene transcription is subject to both phase variation and thermoregulatory control mechanisms (L. B. Blyn, B. A. Braaten, C. A. White-Ziegler, D. H. Rolfson, and D. A. Low, EMBO J. 8:613-620, 1989). At 37 degrees C, Escherichia coli strains carrying the papBAp-lac fusion...
