The Chromobacterium violaceum ArsR arsenite repressor exerts tighter control on its cognate promoter than the Escherichia coli system
Environmental bacteria are endowed with several regulatory systems that have potential applications in biotechnology. In this report, we characterize the arsenic biosensing features of the ars response system from Chromobacterium violaceum in the heterologous host Escherichia coli. We show that the...
