From acids to osmZ: multiple factors influence synthesis of the OmpF and OmpC porins in Escherichia coli by Pratt, L A, Hsing, W, Gibson, K E, Silhavy, T J

“…In Escherichia coli, levels of the two major outer membrane porin proteins, OmpF and OmpC, are regulated in response to a variety of environmental parameters,…”

The Response Regulator SprE Controls the Stability of RpoS by Pratt, Leslie A., Silhavy, Thomas J.

“…In Escherichia coli, the sigma factor, RpoS, is a central regulator in stationary-phase cells. We have identified a gene, sprE (stationary-phase regulator), as…”
