Abstract excerpt
The association of a sigma factor (sigma) with RNA polymerase in bacteria determines its specificity of promoter utilization. To identify amino acid residues in sigma E from Bacillus subtilis that determine the specificity of its interaction with the nucleotides at the -10 region of its cognate p...
