Osmotic regulation of the Escherichia coli bdm (biofilm-dependent modulation) gene by the RcsCDB His-Asp phosphorelay.
The RcsCDB His-Asp phosphorelay is shown to positively regulate the bdm (biofilm-dependent modulation) and sra (stationary-phase-induced ribosome-associated protein) genes in Escherichia coli. The regulation is direct and requires an RcsB box next to the bdm -35 element. In addition, bdm is shown to be activated by osmotic shock in an Rcs-dependent way.
