Background: The binding of regulatory proteins to their specific DNA targets determines the accurate expression of the neighboring genes. The in silico prediction of new binding s...
Our major effort in this reporting period comprised functional genomic studies of key genes for carbon metabolite and nodulation/nitrogen fixation in Sinorhizobium meliloti, compar...
