Abstract excerpt
The SoxR protein of Escherichia coli responds to redox signals by activating the transcription of soxS, which encodes another transcription activator that directly stimulates oxidative stress genes. We show here that transcription of the soxR gene, which is positioned head-to-head with soxS in the chromosome, initiates in the intergenic region and is itself repressed by SoxR protein in in vitro transcription...
