1 Tandem DNA-bound cAMP-CRP complexes are required for transcriptional repression of the deoP2 promoter by the CytR repressor in Escherichia coli. Cyclic AMP catabolite gene activator protein Escherichia coli
2 As is characteristic for CytR-regulated promoters, deoP2 encodes tandem binding sites for the activating complex cAMP-CRP. Cyclic AMP catabolite gene activator protein Escherichia coli
3 Furthermore, the reduction in CytR titration parallels the reduction in binding of cAMP-CRP to the mutated CRP sites in vitro. Cyclic AMP catabolite gene activator protein Escherichia coli
4 Furthermore, the reduction in CytR titration parallels the reduction in binding of cAMP-CRP to the mutated CRP sites in vitro. Cyclic AMP catabolite gene activator protein Escherichia coli
5 These observations are not easily explained by current models for the action of prokaryotic repressors; instead we favour a model in which the interaction of CytR with deoP2 depends on the presence of tandem DNA-bound cAMP-CRP complexes. Cyclic AMP catabolite gene activator protein Escherichia coli
