Recruitment of HU by piggyback: a special role of GalR in repressosome assembly.

Genes & development - 1 Sept 2001

Kar S, Adhya S

Abstract excerpt

In Gal repressosome assembly, a DNA loop is formed by the interaction of two GalR, bound to two distal operators, and the binding of the histone-like protein, HU, to an architecturally critical position on DNA to facilitate the GalR-GalR interaction. We show that GalR piggybacks HU to the critical position on the DNA through a specific GalR-HU interaction. This is the first example of HU making a specific contact...
