CytR DNA-binding transcriptional repressor

Synonyms: CytR, CytR-cytidine
Summary:
CytR, "Cytidine Regulator," is a transcription factor required for transport and utilization of ribonucleosides and deoxyribonucleosides [4, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 29] In addition, a role for CytR in carbon catabolism was recently suggested [32] The repressor CytR and the activator CRP, two dimeric proteins, interact to form a complex repressor nucleoprotein in the intergenic region. When only CRP is bound to this promoter, it functions as an activator, and then, when CytR binds to DNA and to CRP, the activation is repressed because CytR masks an activating region of CRP that otherwise would contact the RNA polymerase to activate transcription [33, 34, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38] The CytR protein cannot act alone; the synergistic DNA binding is increased by direct interaction with CRP [14, 16, 39] However, footprinting analyses showed that the dimers of CytR are flanked or "sandwiched" by two dimers of CRP [1, 12, 28, 34] At times CytR also repositions CRP to alternative DNA-binding sites that are not functional for activation [33] Gavigan et al.
