Abstract excerpt
A mutation in the Escherichia coli gene encoding the stationary phase-inducible sigma factor (sigmaS, RpoS) not only abolishes transcription of some genes in stationary phase, but also causes superinduction of other stationary phase-induced genes. We have examined this phenomenon of repression by sigmaS using as a model system the divergently transcribed stationary phase-inducible genes, uspA and uspB. uspA is...
