additional information | a monodisperse mixture of gp7 and LexA appears as a 72-kDa heterohexameric complex composed of a tetrameric gp7 and dimeric LexA. Modeling of LexA-gp7 interaction in which gp7 acts as a small scaffold to orient the N-terminal and C-terminal domains of LexA such that the binding affinity to DNA is increased. LexA-gp7 Interaction forms a heterohexamer with 2:4 stoichiometry | [Bacillus thuringiensis] serovar konkukian |
physiological function | LexA is a central repressor in the SOS response. During infection of Bacillus thuringiensis with GIL01 bacteriophage, bacterial LexA represses the SOS response and the phage lytic cycle by binding DNA, the interaction is further stabilized upon binding of a viral protein, phage-borne gp7. Analysis of binding stoichiometry and potential interaction with LexA using surface plasmon resonance, static light scattering, and small-angle X-ray scattering, overview. LexA binds and represses expression through binding of dinBox1/1b, with LexA affinity for this region increased through interaction with a viral accessory protein gp7. Removal of the last six C-terminal residues of gp7 does not prevent its interaction with LexA. Modeling of LexA-gp7 interaction in which gp7 acts as a small scaffold to orient the N-terminal and C-terminal domains of LexA such that the binding affinity to DNA is increased. LexA-gp7 Interaction forms a heterohexamer with 2:4 stoichiometry. Under regular growth conditions, LexA binds SOS-box sequences upstream of DNA repair genes to suppress the expression of these genes | [Bacillus thuringiensis] serovar konkukian |
