5' end mapped by primer extension (Pedersen, 1999); 5' and 3' ends mapped by RACE (Kawano, 2005). Northerns performed (Pedersen, 1999; Kawano, 2005). sokB transcripts ore more abundant in minimal medium and in stationary phase than exponential (Kawano, 2005). IS186A interrupts the hokC transcript downstream of the hokC gene in K-12.
