pyrH-encoded UMP-kinase directly participates in pyrimidine-specific modulation of promoter activity in Escherichia coli.

Journal of molecular biology - 24 Jul 1998

Abstract excerpt

The carAB operon of the enterics Escherichia coli K-12 and Salmonella typhimurium LT2, encoding the sole carbamoylphosphate synthetase (CPSase) of these organisms, is transcribed from two promoters in tandem, carP1 upstream and carP2 downstream, repressed respectively by pyrimidines and arginine. We present evidence that the pyrH gene product (the hexameric UMP-kinase) directly participates in the...
