Abstract excerpt

The phenotypical and physical characterization of point mutations and deletions affecting sacR were analysed. The 2 X 28-bp palindromic region present within sacR was responsible for sacB inducibility by sucrose. The sacR mutations also affected sacB expression in Escherichia coli, suggesting tha...
