Abstract excerpt
Transcription of Escherichia coli biotin operon is repressed by biotin repressor in the presence of biotinyl-5'-adenylate as a corepressor. To determine precisely the site of action of biotin repressor on the operator sequence, DNaseI footprinting experiments were performed on the PCR-produced biotin operator and its mutants. The results indicate that the repressor binds to the wild-type operator as well as...
