Table 5 Regulation of E. coli and Y. pestis dppA::lacZ translational gene fusions by the Y. pestis gcvB gene. Cells were grown in LB (E. coli) or in HIB (Y. pestis) at 37°C to an OD₆₀₀ ~0.5 and assayed for β-galactosidase activity [16]. Activity is expressed in Miller units. The parent strains KIM6 and KIM6ΔgcvB grown in HIB at 37°C showed <5 units of β-galactosidase activity.
