Biophysical and structural characterization of a zinc-responsive repressor of the MarR superfamily.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
The uptake of zinc, which is vital in trace amounts, is tightly controlled in bacteria. For this control, bacteria of the Streptococcaceae group use a Zn(II)-binding repressor named ZitR in lactococci and AdcR in streptococci, while other bacteria use a ...
