Note(s): 1A model has been proposed in which ModE-molybdate serves as a secondary transcriptional activator of both the hyc and narXL operons, which are activated primarily by the transcriptional activators FhlA and NarL, respectively. Both ModE and MoeA are needed for maximal expression of the hyc operon. MoeA does not bind DNA 9851041 and it was suggested that it activates molybdenum by sulfurylation 95159151A model has been proposed in which ModE-molybdate serves as a secondary transcriptional activator of both the hyc and narXL operons, which are activated primarily by the transcriptional activators FhlA and NarL, respectively.
