Abstract excerpt
Gel retardation experiments indicated the presence in Pseudomonas aeruginosa cell extracts of an arginine-inducible DNA-binding protein that interacts with the control regions for the car and argF operons, encoding carbamoylphosphate synthetase and anabolic ornithine carbamoyltransferase, respectively. Both enzymes are required for arginine biosynthesis. The use of a combination of transposon mutagenesis and...
