Functional analysis of NsrR, a nitric oxide‐sensing Rrf2 repressor in Neisseria gonorrhoeae

4 Nov 2008

Abstract excerpt

Nitric oxide (NO) has been shown to be an important component of the human immune response, and as such, it is important to understand how pathogenic organisms respond to its presence. In Neisseria gonorrhoeae, recent work has revealed that NsrR, an Rrf2-type transcriptional repressor, can sense NO and control the expression of genes responsible for NO metabolism. A highly pure extract of epitope-tagged NsrR was...
