Abstract During a search for nitrogen-controlled promoters on the Klebsiella pneumoniae M5a1 chromosome, the regulatory region of putP (coding for proline permease) was cloned, sequenced and analyzed. The region contained a weak σ60-dependent promoter and putative binding sites for the cAMP-CAP complex and the Nac regulatory protein, the latter probably providing a link with the nitrogen regulation (Ntr) system. Using a lacZ gene fusion, evidence for control of putP transcription by both Nac and Ntr was obtained.
