Effect of nutrient concentration on the growth of Escherichia coli.

abstract：:We have used a plasmid-based transcriptional reporter system to examine the transcriptional effects of 33 single point mutations in the box A region (TATA-like sequence) of the Haloferax volcanii tRNA(Lys) promoter. The most pronounced effects on transcriptional efficiency were found when the nucleotides corresponding...
