Abstract excerpt
Using a strain carrying a clpC-bgaB transcriptional fusion at the amyE locus, we found that the expression of a clpC operon was induced at the end of exponential growth in a sigmaB-independent manner and ceased around T3.5 in the wild type but not in a spo0H mutant. This suggests that some gene product(s) whose expression is dependent on sigmaH function is required for the turn-off of clpC transcription during an...
