Abstract excerpt
The agarase gene (dagA) of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) is transcribed from four promoters that are recognized by at least three, and probably four, different RNA polymerase holoenzymes, each containing a different sigma factor. S1 nuclease protection studies revealed that transcription from all four promoters is induced by the products of agar hydrolysis and strongly repressed by glucose. Mutants deficient in...
