We present the first analysis of stress-induced DNA duplex destabilization (SIDD) in a complete chromosome, the Escherichia coli K12 genome. We used a newly developed method to calculate the locations and extents of stress-induced destabilization to single-base resolution at superhelix density sigma = -0.06. We find that SIDD sites in this genome show a statistically highly significant tendency to avoid coding regions. And among intergenic regions, those that either contain documented promoters or occur between divergently transcribing coding regions, and hence may be inferred to contain promoters, are associated with strong SIDD sites in a statistically highly significant manner. Intergenic regions located between convergently transcribing genes, which are inferred not to contain promoters, are not significantly enriched for destabilized sites. Statistical analysis shows that a strongly destabilized intergenic region has an 80% chance of containing a promoter, whereas an intergenic region that does not contain a strong SIDD site has only a 24% chance. We describe how these observations may illuminate specific mechanisms of regulation, and assist in the computational identification of promoter locations in prokaryotes.
