Nucleotide sequence of the promoter region of the citrate synthase gene (gltA) of Escherichia coli.
The gltA gene, specifying the citrate synthase (EC 4.1.3.7) of Escherichia coli, has been isolated and the nucleotide sequence of a 752 basepair segment containing the gltA promoter and encoding 96 aminoterminal residues of the protein has been defined using the dideoxy/M13 method. The results confirm the location and transcriptional polarity of the gltA gene and indicate that the gltA transcript may contain a long leader sequence of 302-306 nucleotides upstream from the coding region.
