A nucleotide-sensing oligomerization mechanism that controls NrdR-dependent transcription of ribonucleotide reductases
Ribonucleotide reductase (RNR) is an essential enzyme that catalyzes the synthesis of DNA building blocks. Here, the authors present the cryo-EM structure and mechanism of action of NrdR, the RNR-specific repressor, that controls transcription of RNR genes in bacteria.
