title: Nucleotide sequence analysis of a P fimbrial regulatory element of the uropathogenic Escherichia coli strain KS71 (04:K12).
abstract: The nucleotide sequence of a trans-acting P-fimbrial regulatory element obtained from the uropathogenic Escherichia coli strain KS71 (04:K12) was determined. The regulatory element was found to contain an open reading frame of 231 nucleotide residues that showed 95.2% homology with papl, a functionally analogous regulatory gene of E. coli strain J 96.
