'''Description''' (originally from EcoCyc<ref name='LIB:EcoCyc10.6'/><ref name='LIB:EcoCyc11.1'/>) FecAR Signal Transduction System
 
'''Comments''' (originally from EcoCyc<ref name='LIB:EcoCyc10.6'/>) FecARI are responsible for ferric citrate dependent induction of the ferric citrate
uptake system. When the inducer, ferric citrate, binds FecA, which is also
responsible for transport of ferric citrate across the outer membrane, a signal is
transmitted across the outer membrane to the cytoplasmic membrane protein FecR.
FecR transmits the signal across the cytoplasmic membrane and activates the
&sigma;<sup>70</sup> family protein FecI in the cytoplasm. FecI directs RNA
polymerase to express <I>fecABCDE</I>, which encodes the ferric citrate outer
membrane receptor and the ferric citrate ABC transporter, as well as <I>fecIR</I>
