Scholten M, Tommassen J
Abstract excerpt
The phoE promoter region in Escherichia coli contains a -10 region, typical of sigma 70-dependent promoters and, instead of a normal -35 region, a so-called pho box, to which the transcriptional activator phospho-PhoB binds under low phosphate conditions. A second pho box is present upstream of t...
