title: RpoS-dependent regulation of genes expressed at late stationary phase in Escherichia coli.
abstract: We have identified 6 Escherichia coli genomic genes, including 4 new genes, responsive to the stationary phase. One of them was regulated positively by RpoS at the stationary phase, and the remaining 5 negatively at a late stationary phase, all of them responding to multiple environmental stresses. Nucleotide sequences as well as such multiple responses revealed that those genes may have more than one overlapping-promoter recognized by different sigma-factors which regulate gene expressions during their cell growth.
