Transcription unit       
Name: nagC
Gene(s): nagC   Genome Browser M3D Gene expression COLOMBOS
Note(s): Two promoters localized within the nagA gene sequence are responsible for most of the nagC expression. Although mutational and S1 mapping analyses have been carried out by Plumbridge J.,1996 they did not point out the transcriptional start of nagCp1 and nagCp2, and they only mentioned the putative boxes for σ70-type promoters. Therefore, a putative transcriptional start site to these promoters was assigned based on the observation that the majority of the promoters with experimentally determined transcriptional start sites present a distance of 6 nucleotides between the transcriptional start site and the -10 box Harley CB, Reynolds RP,1987
