Abstract excerpt
Transcription of the genes belonging to the phosphate (pho) regulon in Escherichia coli, which are induced by phosphate starvation, requires the specific activator protein PhoB in addition to the RNA polymerase holoenzyme containing the major sigma-factor sigma 70. To study the mechanism of transcriptional activation and identify the subunit of RNA polymerase involved in specific interaction with PhoB, we...
