Note(s): Based on ChIP-microarray analysis, it was shown that StpA binds to the promoter region in appYp2 Atlung T,1996. Uyar E, Kurokawa K, Yoshimura M, Ishikawa S, Ogasawara N, Oshima T,2009 qRT-PCR revealed a strong 75-fold repression of appY by H-NS and more than 1,000-fold repression by H-NS/StpA Rangarajan AA,2018
Transcription directed across H-NS binding regions relieves H-NS-mediated (and H-NS/StpA-mediated) repression of promoters such as proVp3, pdeLp3, and appYp2, and there is a correlation between transcription across the H-NS-bound region and derepression where RNA polymerase is able to remodel the H-NS complex and/or dislodge H-NS from the DNA and thus relieve repression Rangarajan AA,2018
