fecI [Escherichia coli str. K-12 substr. MG1655] - Gene

Summary

Official Symbol: fecI
Primary source: ECOCYC:EG10291
Locus tag: b4293
See related: ASAP:ABE-0014072
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: PROVISIONAL
Organism: Escherichia coli str. K-12 substr. MG1655 (strain: K-12, substrain: MG1655)
Lineage: Bacteria; Pseudomonadota; Gammaproteobacteria; Enterobacterales; Enterobacteriaceae; Escherichia
Also known as: ECK4283
Summary: Polyamine modulon. [More information is available at EcoGene: EG10291]. FecI (sigma19) was first described as a protein that regulated the expression of genes involved in the transport of ferric citrate ; later, it was determined as sigma factor based on similarities to a subgroup of sigma70 factors, and it binds to the fec transport gene promoter upstream fecA .
