Orthologues of M. smegmatis whmD rescue M. smegmatis 628-53. (A) Protein sequence alignments of M. smegmatis WhmD (MsWhmD), S. coelicolor WhiB (ScWhiB), and M. tuberculosis WhiB2 (MtWhiB2). (B) Alignments of the 5′ UTRs of M. smegmatis whmD, S. coelicolor whiB, and M. tuberculosis whiB2, showing the positions of the promoter elements. The four-pointed star marks the transcription start site as determined by 5′ rapid amplification of cDNA ends. (C) Morphology upon inducer withdrawal of M. smegmatis 628-53 transformed with plasmids containing S. coelicolor whiB (1) and M. tuberculosis whiB2 (2).
