Transcriptional regulation of katE in Escherichia coli K-12
Abstract
Escherichia coli produces two distinct species of catalase, hydroperoxidases I and II, which differ in kinetic properties and regulation. To further examine catalase regulation, a lacZ fusion was placed into one of the genes that is involved in catalase synthesis. Transductional mapping revealed the fusion to be either allelic with or very close to katE, a locus which together with katF controls the synthesis of the aerobically inducible …
