Abstract excerpt
The OmpR protein is a positive regulator specific for the Escherichia coli ompF and ompC genes. This protein functions in a phosphorylation-dependent manner through a presumed interaction with RNA polymerase. We previously isolated OmpR mutants which were suggested to be defective in transcriptio...
