The zinc-responsive regulator Zur and its control of the znu gene cluster encoding the ZnuABC zinc uptake system in Escherichia coli.

The Journal of biological chemistry - 11 Aug 2000

Patzer S I, Hantke K

Abstract excerpt

The synthesis of the Escherichia coli zinc transporter, encoded by the znuACB gene cluster, is regulated in response to the intracellular zinc concentration by the zur gene product. Inactivation of the zur gene demonstrated that Zur acts as a repressor when binding Zn(2+). Eight chromosomal mutant zur alleles were sequenced to correlate the loss of Zur function with individual mutations. Wild-type Zur and...
