Title: Oxygen sensitivity of the nifLA promoter of Klebsiella pneumoniae

; ; ;

Oxygen sensitivity of the nifLA promoter of Klebsiella pneumoniae has been demonstrated. Studies on the oxygen regulation of nifB-lacZ and nifH-lacZ fusions in the presence of the nifLA operon, which contains either an intact or a deleted nifL gene, indicate that possible both the nifL promoter and the nifL product are responsible for nif repression by oxygen.
