Interested in studying gene regulation, use bacteria (in lab) to understand how regulation evolves (in nature),

We discovered that the pulsatile nature of its basal expression is linked to the marR start codon, GTG. We found that basal expression confers a fitness adv by shortening lag time during transitions in growth phases, suggesting a broader role for the mar operon in maintaining growth homeostasis 2/2
