Reassociation of purified lipopolysaccharide and phospholipid of the bacterial cell envelope: electron microscopic and monolayer studies.

abstract：:H-NS is an abundant nucleoid-associated protein involved in the maintenance of chromosomal architecture in bacteria. H-NS also has a role in silencing the expression of a variety of environmentally regulated genes during growth under nonpermissive conditions. In this study we demonstrate a role for H-NS in the negativ...
