ABSTRACT:
Effect of FIS and H-NS on gene expression at relaxed and hypernegative supercoiling level was also studied using LZ41 and LZ54 strains. LZ41 and LZ54 strains contain drug-resistant alleles of different topoisomerase genes. In the LZ41 strain norfloxacin treatment strongly relaxes DNA, whereas in the LZ54 strain the same treatment generates high negative supercoiling (Khodursky et al., 1995, PNAS 92:11801-5; Ziechedrich et al, 1997, Genes Dev. 11:2580-92).
