Operon evidence: Northern blotting (1.8 kb transcript)
Reference: Antelmann H, et al. (2000), Huang X, et al. (1999), Genbank D85082
Comments: Internal promoters in front of yfhL and yfhM, leading to a 1.2 kb and a 0.9 kb transcript, respectively. SubtiList and Genbank D85082 list a terminator after yfhK, but none after yfhM. Northern blotting results in BSORF show a yfhK, a yfhLM, and a yfhKLM transcript. Huang et al. found a sigW-dependent promoter in front of yfhL; the promoter in front of yfhM has not yet been identified.
