title: The complete nucleotide sequence of the gene (rpoD1) encoding the principal sigma factor of the RNA polymerase from the cyanobacterium Synechococcus sp. strain PCC7942.
abstract: The complete nucleotide sequence of rpoD1 gene from Synechococcus PCC7942 has been determined. The nucleotide data have indicated the presence of an open reading frame of 1155 base pairs encoding a polypeptide which shares the framework structure for principal sigma factors of eubacterial strains.
