Crystal Structure of IscR bound to its promoter
Function
[ISCR_ECOLI] Regulates the transcription of several operons and genes involved in the biogenesis of Fe-S clusters and Fe-S-containing proteins. Transcriptional repressor of the iscRSUA operon, which is involved in the assembly of Fe-S clusters into Fe-S proteins. In its apoform, under conditions of oxidative stress or iron deprivation, it activates the suf operon, which is a second operon involved in the assembly of Fe-S clusters. Represses its own transcription as well as that of toxin rnlA.[1] [2] [3]
About this Structure
4hf1 is a 4 chain structure with sequence from Escherichia coli k-12. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
