Bacteria use a variety of mechanisms to direct RNA polymerase to specific promoters in
order to activate transcription in response to growth signals or environmental cues …

This review covers the physiological aspects of regulation of the arabinose operon in
Escherichia coli and the physical and regulatory properties of the operon's controlling gene …

Over forty years of research on the l-arabinose operon of Escherichia coli have provided
insights into the mechanism of positive regulation of gene activity. This research also …

The AraC family of bacterial transcriptional activators regulate diverse genetic systems.
Recent X-ray diffraction studies show that the monomeric MarA and Rob activators bind to …

The crystal structure of the arabinose-binding and dimerization domain of the Escherchia
coli gene regulatory protein AraC was determined in the presence and absence of l …

Abstract The Escherichia coli Rob protein is a transcription factor belonging to the AraC/XylS
protein family that regulates genes involved in resistance to antibiotics, organic solvents and …

Escherichia coli can uptake and utilize many common natural sugars to form biomass or
valuable target bio-products. Carbon catabolite repression (CCR) will occur and hamper the …

The severity of the malaria pandemic in the tropics is aggravated by the ongoing spread of
parasite resistance to antimalarial drugs and mosquito resistance to insecticides. A strain of …

In the bacterium Escherichia coli, the AraC protein positively and negatively regulates
expression of the proteins required for the uptake and catabolism of the sugar L‐arabinose …

Acetyl-CoA is not only an important intermediate metabolite for cells but also a significant
precursor for production of industrially interesting metabolites. Methylobacterium extorquens …
