Abstract excerpt
The Escherichia coli sigmaE regulon has evolved to sense the presence of misfolded proteins in the bacterial envelope. Expression of periplasmic chaperones and folding catalysts is under the control of sigmaE RNA polymerase. The N-terminal domain of RseA sequesters sigmaE in the cytoplasmic membrane, preventing its association with core RNA polymerase. The C-terminal domain of RseA interacts with RseB, a...
