Abstract
The major heat-shock-responsive operon groESL has been cloned from the cyan obacterial diazotroph Anabaena. The bicistronic operon harbors an upstream negative regulatory CIRCE element and is transcriptionally activated upon t emperature upshift. The deduced amino acid sequence displays strong identit y/similarity with other cyanobacterial GroES and GroEL proteins. (C) 2001 E lsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
