Abstract excerpt

The transcriptional control of the kdpFABC (K+ transport) operon of Salmonella typhimurium was characterized with a lacZ fusion. The kdpFABC operon of this organism was induced by K+ limitation and high osmolality, and osmotic induction was antagonized by a high concentration of K+. In the trkA (...
