Design of a tunable bacterial gene expression system using engineered σ factors

Extracytoplasmic function (ECF) σ factors selectively upregulate expression of specific genes in bacteria. These σ factors, belonging to the σ family, are much smaller than the primary, housekeeping σ factor with two helical domains that interact with the Pribnow box and the -35 element of the promo...
