Note(s): 1A putative DpiA-binding site, which is an A+T-rich sequence, is located upstream of the appY gene Ingmer H,1998.1The appY promoter region contains a curved DNA which could be specific for the recognition of H-NS. However, it is possible that there might be more than one H-NS-binding site in the appY promoter region. H-NS plays a role in the thermoregulation of the appY gene Atlung T,1996.1A putative DpiA-binding site, which is an A+T-rich sequence, is located upstream of the appY gene Ingmer H,1998.
