Abstract excerpt
Biodegradative arginine decarboxylase is inducible by acid and is derepressed in an hns mutant. Several plasmids from an Escherichia coli library that could complement the hns phenotype were characterized and placed into groups. One group includes plasmids that contain the hns gene and are considered true complements. Another group was found to carry the hfq gene, which encodes the host factor HF-1 for...
