Disease relevance of fliJ

  • The C. crescentus flaO and flbF promoters, which do not contain the Ntr/Nif-type promoter consensus sequence, were not utilized by either purified E sigma 54 or E sigma 70 from E. coli [1].
  • The fliF operon of Caulobacter crescentus, which was previously designated the flaO locus, is near the top of the flagellar-gene regulatory hierarchy, and it is one of the earliest transcription units to be expressed in the cell cycle [2].
