Abstract excerpt
A promoter which controls expression of the pristinamycin multidrug resistance gene (ptr) in Streptomyces pristinaspiralis could be induced by physiological stresses in both Streptomyces spp. and Escherichia coli. In S. pristinaspiralis, the ptr promoter (Pptr) was induced by pristinamycin I (PI)...
