Table 1 Selected growth parameters determined for wild type, ΔetpR mutant and etpR-complemented mutant (etpR-compl.) of "A. aromaticum" EbN1a

From: The predicted σ54-dependent regulator EtpR is essential for expression of genes for anaerobic p-ethylphenol and p-hydroxyacetophenone degradation in “Aromatoleum aromaticum” EbN1
