title: Structure of genes narL and narX of the nar (nitrate reductase) locus in Escherichia coli K-12.
abstract: narL and narX mediate nitrate induction of nitrate reductase synthesis and nitrate repression of fumarate reductase synthesis. We report here the nucleotide sequences of narL and narX. The deduced protein sequences aid in defining distinct subclasses of regulators and sensors in the family of two-component regulatory proteins.
