Abstract excerpt
Escherichia coli survives under acid stress conditions by the glutamic acid-dependent acid resistance (GAD) system, which enzymatically decreases intracellular protons. We found a linkage between GAD and flagellar systems in E. coli. The hdeD gene, one of the GAD cluster genes, encodes an uncharacterized membrane protein. A reporter assay showed that the hdeD promoter was induced in a GadE-dependent manner when...
