Abstract excerpt
Two distinct classes of RNA polymerase sigma factors (sigma) exist in bacteria and are largely unrelated in primary amino acid sequence and their modes of transcription activation. Using tethered iron chelate (Fe-BABE) derivatives of the enhancer-dependent sigma(54), we mapped several sites of proximity to the beta and beta' subunits of the core RNA polymerase. Remarkably, most sites localized to those previously...
