title: Point mutations in the regulatory region of the ilvGMEDA operon of Escherichia coli K-12.
abstract: The ilvGMEDA operon of Escherichia coli K-12 is preceded by a regulatory region containing a promoter, a leader, and an attenuator. This region has been extensively characterized biochemically. In this note point mutations of the regulatory region are reported. The effect of these mutations on expression from the ilv regulatory region supports the previous biochemical analysis.
