- 4011884..4012717 transcriptional antiterminator (BglG family) COG3711 x0231-BAC  
bglS bgl, licS - 4010860..4011588 endo-beta-1,3-1,4 glucanase COG2273  

Operon evidence: Northern blotting (2.4 kb transcript)
Reference: Schnetz K, et al. (1996)
Comments: The terminator structure downstream of licT leads to a 0.9 kb transcript. In the presence of the beta-glucan lichenan, LicT binds to the ribonuclic antiterminator (RAT) sequence just upstream, alleviating termination at this stem-loop.
