In vitro activation of the transcription of araBAD operon by araC activator.

Lee N, Wilcox G, Gielow W, Arnold J, Cleary P, Englesberg E

Abstract

The transcription of araBAD operon requires araC activator and cyclic AMP. D-Fucose inhibits ara mRNA synthesis. Our results indicate that the positive control by araC activator is exerted at the level of transcription.
