Site-directed mutational analysis of the osmotically regulated proU promoter of Salmonella typhimurium.

X Zhang1, S A Fletcher, L N Csonka.   

Abstract

We carried out PCR mutagenesis of the proU promoter of Salmonella typhimurium, in order to identify sequences important for its osmotic control. We obtained five mutations in the -35 element: two decreased the promoter strength, one increased it, and the others had no effect. However, none abolished osmotic control, suggesting that the sequence of the -35 element is not crucial for osmotic control.
