ArgR-independent induction and ArgR-dependent superinduction of the astCADBE operon in Escherichia coli

For Escherichia coli, growth in the absence of ammonia is termed nitrogen limited and results in the induction of genes that assimilate other nitrogen sources, a response mediated by sigma(54) and nitrogen regulator I (NR(I), also called NtrC). The astCADBE operon, which is required for growth with...
