Abstract excerpt
Many transcriptional regulators function in homo- or heterodimeric combinations. The same protein can carry out distinct regulatory functions depending on the partner with which it associates. Here, we describe a mutant of the Escherichia coli cAMP receptor protein (CRP) that has an altered dimer...
