Bacterial MerR family transcription regulators: activation<?A3B2 ACK?>by distortion
Transcription factors (TFs) modulate gene expression by regulating the accessibility of promoter DNA to RNA polymerases (RNAPs) in bacteria. The MerR family TFs are a large class of bacterial proteins unique in their physiological functions and molecular action: they function as transcription repres...
