The hns (27 min) gene encoding the 15.4-kDa nucleoid protein H-NS was shown to belong
to the cold shock regulon of Escherichia coli, its expression being enhanced 3-to 4-fold …

The hns gene is a member of the cold-shock regulon, indicating that the nucleoid-
associated, DNA-binding protein H-NS plays an important role in the adaptation of …

Hsc66 is the second identified Hsp70 protein in Escherichia coli. Mutations in hscA, the
gene encoding Hsc66, compensate for some phenotypic effects of a mutation in hns, a gene …

Abstract Escherichia coli protein CS7. 4 (CspA), homologous to the class of eukaryotic Y-box
DNA-binding proteins, is a cold shock transcriptional activator of at least two genes, hns and …

A downshift in temperature or exposure of cells to certain inhibitors of translation has been
shown to induce the synthesis of cold shock proteins in Escherichia coli. We characterized …

Expression of a promoterless cat gene fused to a DNA fragment of approximately 400 bp,
beginning at–313 of Escherichia coli hns, was significantly repressed in E. coli and …

In Escherichia coli the product of the rpoH (htpR) gene, sigma 32, directs RNA polymerase
to initiate transcription from heat shock promoters at all temperatures. Transcription of the …

Mutations in hns, the gene encoding the nucleoid-associated protein H-NS, affect both the
expression of many specific unlinked genes and the inversion rate of the DNA segment …

Expression of Escherichia coli hupA and hupB, the structural genes encoding the most
abundant nucleoid‐associated proteins HUα and HUβ has been studied during cold shock …

In Escherichia coli high-level production of some heterologous proteins (specifically, human
prorenin, renin, and bovine insulin-like growth factor 2) resulted in the induction of two new …
