Transcriptional regulation in bacterial membrane lipid synthesis

This review covers the main transcriptional mechanisms that control membrane phospholipid synthesis in bacteria. The fatty acid components are the most energetically expensive modules to produce; thus, the regulation of fatty acid production is very tightly controlled to match the growth rate of cel...
