Transcription unit          
Name: nfeF
Synonym(s): yqjH
Gene(s): nfeF   Genome Browser M3D Gene expression COLOMBOS
Note(s): FUR is a regulator that binds cooperatively, on different faces of the DNA Chen Z,2007. Lavrrar JL, McIntosh MA,2003, in the promoter regions; according to the sequence identified by Wang et al. in 2011 (GATTAACAATCATTATCATTT), it is possible that this regulator interacts with three binding sites in different positions Wang S,2011.
A potential RNA G-quadruplex structure, formed by guanine-rich sequences located in the coding sequence region of the gene, was identified for nfeF . This structure could regulate the expression of the gene, as observed for hemL gene expression Shao X, Zhang W, Umar MI, Wong HY, Seng Z, Xie Y, Zhang Y, Yang L, Kwok CK, Deng X,2020.
