Crystal structure of Fis bound to 27 bp optimal binding sequence F1

Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 20395367

Function

[FIS_ECOLI] Activates ribosomal RNA transcription, as well other genes. Plays a direct role in upstream activation of rRNA promoters. Binds to a recombinational enhancer sequence that is required to stimulate hin-mediated DNA inversion. Prevents initiation of DNA replication from oriC.[1][2]

About this Structure
