Factor For Inversion Stimulation Protein  

Type

  • mesh:Descriptor

Definition

  • A highly abundant DNA binding protein whose expression is strongly correlated with the growth phase of bacteria. The protein plays a role in regulating DNA topology and activation of RIBOSOMAL RNA transcription. It was originally identified as a factor required for inversion stimulation by the Hin recombinase of SALMONELLA and Gin site-specific recombinase of BACTERIOPHAGE MU.

Entry terms

  • HIN Recombinational Enhancer Binding Protein
