RcsB and RcsC: a two-component regulator of capsule synthesis in Escherichia coli.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Feb 1990

Stout V, Gottesman S

Abstract excerpt

Colanic acid capsule synthesis in Escherichia coli K-12 is regulated by RcsB and RcsC. The amino acid sequences of these two proteins, deduced from the nucleotide sequence reported here, demonstrate their homology to environmentally responsive two-component regulators that have been reported in both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. In our model, RcsC acts as the sensor and RcsB acts as the receiver or...
