Crystal Structure of Sara, A Transcription Regulator From Staphylococcus AureusCrystal Structure of Sara, A Transcription Regulator From Staphylococcus Aureus
Structural highlights
2frh is a 2 chain structure with sequence from Staphylococcus aureus. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance.
SARA_STAAW Global regulator with both positive and negative effects that controls the expression of several virulence factors and the biofilm formation process in a cell density-dependent manner (By similarity). Required for transcription of primary transcripts RNAII and RNAIII generated by agr (virulence accessory gene regulator) locus. Negatively regulates the expression of spa (protein A) and aur (metalloprotease aureolysin).
