Abstract excerpt
The NahR protein of the Pseudomonas naphthalene degradation plasmid NAH7 encodes a 300-residue transcription activator which is very similar to the NodD transcription activator of Rhizobium and other proteins in the LysR activator family. NahR binds to conserved sequences upstream (nucleotides -80 to -47) of the nah and sal promoters and activates transcription of genes for naphthalene catabolism in response to...
