HTH-type transcriptional regulator AlkX

UniProtKB accession:  O05892

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Represses the expression of the alkB-rubAB operon, which encodes the alkane hydroxylase AlkB and the rubredoxins RubA and RubB (PubMed:35938806). Acts by binding to the promoter region of the operon (PubMed:35938806). In addition, EMSA analysis show that AlkX can bind to the promoter region of mmpS1 and mmpL3 and to the intragenic region of mmpL11, suggesting that it may participate in the regulatory network that controls the expression of MmpL lipid transporters (PubMed:26396194).
