Characterization of molecular mechanisms controlling fabAB transcription in Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

BACKGROUND: The FabAB pathway is one of the unsaturated fatty acid (UFA) synthesis pathways for Pseudomonas aeruginosa. It was previously noted that this operon was upregulated in biofilms and repressed by exogenous UFAs. Deletion of a 30 nt fabA upstream sequence, which is conserved in P. aeruginos...
