Selection for unequal densities of sigma70 promoter-like signals in different regions of large bacterial genomes.
The evolutionary processes operating in the DNA regions that participate in the regulation of gene expression are poorly understood. In Escherichia coli, we have established a sequence pattern that distinguishes regulatory from nonregulatory regions. The density of promoter-like sequences, that coul...
