Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
histone-like nucleoid structuring protein i.e. H-NS, H-NS stimulates transcription from the F3 fragment, it can facilitate specific DNA-binding by RNA polymerase in AT-rich gene regulatory regions. Correct positioning of RNA polymerase at PehxCABD requires H-NS. Footprint of RNA polymerase (s70 RC461-FeBABE) interactions with -10 elements in the ehxCABD regulatory region in the presence of H-NS, overview Escherichia coli

additional information Escherichia coli RNA polymerase binds multiple sites in the ehxCABD gene regulatory region. At the Escherichia coli ehxCABD operon, RNA polymerase is unable to distinguish between the promoter -10 element and similar overlapping sequences. RNA polymerase competes with itself for binding to AT-rich sequences overlapping PehxCABD, correct positioning of RNA polymerase at PehxCABD requires H-NS ?
