    What's a GeneRIF?
    1. study concludes that cross talk between the regulatory systems for virulence and metabolism of aromatic amines may depend upon the ability of QseBC and, to a lesser extent QseF, to regulate feaR as well as genes directly involved in virulence

    2. Using genetic, biochemical and computational approaches, authors show that the FeaR binding site is a TGNCA-N8-AAA motif that occurs in 2 copies in the tynA and feaB promoters.
