The ChiS-family DNA-binding domain contains a cryptic helix-turn-helix variant

2020-11-18

Abstract excerpt

Sequence specific DNA-binding domains (DBDs) are conserved in all domains of life. These proteins carry out a variety of cellular functions, and there are a number of distinct structural domains already described that allow for sequence-specific DNA binding, including the ubiquitous helix-turn-helix (HTH) domain. In the facultative pathogen Vibrio cholerae , the chitin sensor ChiS is a transcriptional regulator t...
