FLEXIBILITY OF THE DNA-BINDING DOMAINS OF TRP REPRESSOR
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 3375234
Function
[TRPR_ECOLI] This protein is an aporepressor. When complexed with L-tryptophan it binds the operator region of the trp operon (5'-ACTAGT-'3') and prevents the initiation of transcription. The complex also regulates trp repressor biosynthesis by binding to its regulatory region.
About this Structure
3wrp is a 1 chain structure with sequence from Escherichia coli. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
