+== Function ==
+[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/KORB2_ECOLX KORB2_ECOLX] In conjunction with KorA, inhibits the transcription of the kilA, trfA and korAB operons. Is also involved in the negative control of the kilB operon.

+== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
+Examples of long-range gene regulation in bacteria are rare and generally thought to involve DNA looping. Here, using a combination of biophysical approaches including X-ray crystallography and single-molecule analysis for the KorB-KorA system in Escherichia coli, we show that long-range gene silencing on the plasmid RK2, a source of multi-drug resistance across diverse Gram-negative bacteria, is achieved cooperatively by a DNA-sliding clamp, KorB, and a clamp-locking protein, KorA. We show that KorB is a CTPase clamp that can entrap and slide along DNA to reach distal target promoters up to 1.5 kb away. We resolved the tripartite crystal structure of a KorB-KorA-DNA co-complex, revealing that KorA latches KorB into a closed clamp state. DNA-bound KorA thus stimulates repression by stalling KorB sliding at target promoters to occlude RNA polymerase holoenzymes. Together, our findings explain the mechanistic basis for KorB role switching from a DNA-sliding clamp to a co-repressor and provide an alternative mechanism for long-range regulation of gene expression in bacteria.
