FrlR DNA-binding transcriptional repressor

Synonyms: FrlR, FrlR-N6-(1-deoxy-6-O-phospho-D-fructos-1-yl)-L-lysine
Summary:
As a dimer, FrlR binds DNA to regulate transcription, and it becomes inactive as a regulator when it is bound to fructoselysine-6-phosphate [1]. It has a winged helix-turn-helix domain for binding DNA, and this domain contains the amino acids Arg49, Gly70, and Lys71, which appear to be essential for DNA binding [1]. FrlR has similarity to Bacillus subtilis FrlR [1, 2], B. subtilis NagR [1], and S. enterica FraR [1]. As homologues, this protein appears to pertain to the GntR/HutC family of transcriptional regulators [1]. FrlR: fructolysine [2] Read more >
