Regulation of citric acid cycle genes in facultative bacteria.
In a facultative anaerobe such as Escherichia coli the citric acid cycle is an inducible pathway rather than a constitutive pathway. In spite of intensive study at the enzymological and molecular biological levels many aspects of the cycle, including its regulation during the aerobic/anaerobic switch, are not fully understood.
