Disease relevance of araD

Nucleotide sequence of the araD gene of Escherichia coli K12 encoding the L-ribulose 5-phosphate 4-epimerase [1].
The araBAD operon of Salmonella typhimurium LT2. III. Nucleotide sequence of araD and its flanking regions, and primary structure of its product, L-ribulose-5-phosphate 4-epimerase [2].

High impact information on araD

Sequence analysis of the upstream region localized a LexA binding site overlapping the -35 region of the dinA promoter, and this promoter element was found to be only two nucleotides downstream from the 3' end of the araD gene [3].
