Experimental Process

In vivo transcriptional analyses showed that HmgR is a repressor of the hmgABC operon. lacZ promoter fusion analysis further confirmed the results. EMSA confirmed HmgR binding to hmgR-hmgA intergenic region. DNase I footprinting was used to localize the HmgR binding region.

Gene Regulation

Regulated genes for each binding site are displayed below. Gene regulation diagrams show binding sites, positively-regulated genes, negatively-regulated genes, both positively and negatively regulated genes, genes with unspecified type of regulation. For each indvidual site, experimental techniques used to determine the site are also given.
