Experimental Process

torECAD transcription start site was identified by primer extension analysis using RNA prepared from cells grown anaerobically with TMAO. torEC-lacZ fusion assays verified TorR-dependent regulation of torECAD. EMSA confirmed that this regulation is direct. DNase I footprinting localized the TorR binding site in the torECAD promoter. Deletion of the TorR box resulted in reduced expression and loss of binding.

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.
