摘要:Interactions between the cAMP receptor protein (CRP) and the carboxy-terminal regulatory domain (CTD) of Escherichia coli RNA polymerase subunit were analyzed at promoters carrying tandem DNA sites for CRP binding using a chemical nuclease covalently attached to . Each CRP dimer was found to direct the positioning of one of the two subunit CTDs. Thus, the function of RNA polymerase may be subject to regulation through protein-protein interactions between the two subunits and two different species of transcription factors.
