The Mechanism of Regulation of Chemolithotrophic Sulfur Oxidation in Pseudaminobacter salicylatoxidans KCT001
Abstract: Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Although the mode of repression of the sulfur oxidation (sox) operon has been elucidated in recent times the mechanism of its derepression is not yet known. Here we propose a comprehensive mechanism of sox gene expression by envisaging redox modulation of soxR as the key to the repression as well as derepression of sox-mediated thiosulfate oxidation Pseudaminobacter salicylatoxidans KCT001. While soxR, rendered to its …
