Abstract excerpt
The H-NS nucleoid-associated protein of Escherichia coli is the founder member of a widespread family of gene regulatory proteins which have a bipartite structure, consisting of an N-terminal coiled-coil oligomerization domain and a C-terminal DNA-binding domain. Here we characterize a family of naturally occurring truncated H-NS derivatives lacking the DNA-binding domain, which we term the H-NST family. H-NST...
