Feedback control in OmrA/B expression. (A) Scheme depicting the experiment performed in (B): the β-galactosidase activity of promoter fusions to OmrA, OmrB, ompC and ompF was measured upon overproduction of OmrA, OmrB or of their mut2 derivatives, in strains with a wt copy of ompR (gray bars) or with a mutant version carrying the ompRmut2 compensatory change to OmrA/Bmut2 (black bars). Strains used here are MG1014, MG1666, MG1017, MG1667, MG1901, MG1902, MG1686, MG1688 (panel B, see strain table for details). (C) Activity of the same set of promoter fusions was compared in omrAB+ and omrAB strains in the ompR107 background. Values are represented as % of wt strain for each fusion; the activities of the wt strains were, in Miller units, 135 (PomrA fusion), 173 (PomrB), 547 (PompF) and 5042 (PompC). Strains used are MG1301, MG1908, MG1305, MG1909, MG1696, MG1910, MG1895 and MG1911.
