Promoter
Name: flgMp
+1: 1130165
Sigma Factor: Sigma28 Sigmulon
Distance from start of the gene: 37

Note(s): The sequence of this promoter has been defined, by computational analyses, from consensus sequence of the σ28 (σF) promoters: TAAAGTTT in the -35 box and GCCGATAA in the -10 box Park K,2001. Ko M,2000. Ide N,1999. Therefore, we assigned a putative transcription start site for this promoter based on the observation that the majority of the σ28 promoters, determined experimentally, present an important -10 motif (5'-CGA-3') at the positions -12 to -10 and a distance of 6 nucleotides between the transcription start site and the -10 box 16855242.
