Multiple σEcfG and NepR Proteins Are Involved in the General Stress Response in Methylobacterium extorquens.

In Alphaproteobacteria, the general stress response (GSR) is controlled by a conserved partner switch composed of the sigma factor σ(EcfG), its anti-sigma factor NepR and the anti-sigma factor antagonist PhyR. Many species possess paralogues of one or several components of the system, but their role...
