Abstract excerpt
The controller protein of the Esp1396I restriction-modification (R-M) system binds differentially to three distinct operator sequences upstream of the methyltransferase (M) and endonuclease (R) genes to regulate the timing of gene expression. The crystal structure of a complex of the protein with two adjacent operator DNA sequences has been reported; however, the structure of the free protein has not yet been...
