Abstract excerpt
The promoters of the Escherichia coli maltose regulon are positively regulated by the MalT protein, which recognizes a short asymmetric nucleotide sequence that is present as several copies in each promoter of the regulon. We report a detailed biochemical characterization of the interaction of Ma...
