Function
ROP_ECOLX Regulates plasmid DNA replication by modulating the initiation of transcription of the primer RNA precursor. Processing of the precursor of the primer, RNAII, is inhibited by hydrogen bonding of RNAII to its complementary sequence in RNAI. ROP increases the affinity of RNAI for RNAII and thus decreases the rate of replication initiation events.

Publication Abstract from PubMed
The crystal structure of a 4-alpha-helical bundle protein has been determined by the application of a 23-dimensional molecular-replacement search performed using a stochastic method. The search model for the calculation was a 26-residue-long polyalanine helix amounting to less than 13% of the total number of atoms in the asymmetric unit of the target crystal structure. The crystal structure determination procedure is presented in detail, with emphasis on the molecular-replacement calculations.
