Operon evidence: Northern blotting (12 kb transcript)
Reference: Turner RJ, et al. (1994), Genbank AJ000974, Genbank M59757
Comments: Northern blotting showed four transcripts (of 0.12, 0.65, 2.3, and 12 kb) corresponding to the transcriptional terminators upstream of pyrR and downstream of pyrR, pyrP, and pyrE. At these stem-loops, transcriptional termination (mediated by PyrR) occurs in the presence of excess uridine monophosphate.
