Sigma factors are bacterial transcription factors that bind the core RNA polymerase and direct transcription initiation at a specific promoter site. These specialized sigma factors bind the promoters of genes appropriate to the environmental conditions and selectively increase the...

Fitness of Outbreak and Environmental Strains of Escherichia coli O157:H7 in Aerosolizable Soil and Association of Clonal Variation in Stress Gene Regulation.

Pathogens (Basel, Switzerland)

Pathogens. 2014 Jun 30;3(3):528-48. doi: 10.3390/pathogens3030528.

Airborne dust from feedlots is a potential mechanism of contamination of nearby vegetable crops with Escherichia coli O157:H7 (EcO157). We compared the fitness of clinical and environmental strains of EcO157 in

Physiological and transcriptomic characterization of a fliA mutant of Pseudomonas putida KT2440.

Environmental microbiology reports
