Abstract:AbstractThe survival of any microbe relies upon its ability to respond to environmental change. Use of Extra Cytoplasmic Function (ECF) RNA polymerase sigma (σ) factors is a major strategy enabling dynamic responses to extracellular signals. Streptomyces species harbor a large number of ECF σ factors; nearly all of which regulate genes required for morphological differentiation and/or response to environmental stress, except for σAntA Show more
