Abstract

Sequence analysis of several Bacillus subtilis mutants with increased activity of flavokinase/FAD-synthase and the results of Northern hybridization showed that the TTGCCG-17n-TACATT motif localized to the C-end of the truB gene is a regulatory region that controls the ribC gene at the level of transcription.
