Researchers reveal a unique, hitherto-unknown bacterial transcriptional promoter recognition mode

Researchers led by Prof. Zhu Ping from the Institute of Biophysics and Prof. Feng Yingang at the Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Technology, both under the Chinese Academy of Sciences, have revealed a unique, hitherto-unknown bacterial transcriptional promoter recognition mode by distinct σI factors in Clostridium thermocellum, both with respect to domain organization and binding mode to promoter DNA.
