We determined the genome-wide distribution of the nucleoid-associated protein Fis in
Escherichia coli using chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled with high-resolution whole …

Nucleoid-associated proteins (NAPs) are global regulators of gene expression in
Escherichia coli, which affect DNA conformation by bending, wrapping and bridging the …

The bacterial nucleoid-associated protein Fis regulates diverse reactions by bending DNA
and through DNA-dependent interactions with other control proteins and enzymes. In …

The Escherichia coli DNA‐binding protein FIS serves as a DNA architectural factor in two
unrelated enzymatic reactions, the site‐specific inversion of DNA and transcriptional …

The Escherichia coli protein Fis is remarkable for its ability to interact specifically with DNA
sites of highly variable sequences. The mechanism of this sequence-flexible DNA …

Fis is a nucleoid-associated protein in Escherichia coli that is abundant during early
exponential growth in rich medium but is in short supply during stationary phase. Its role as a …

To fit within the confines of the cell, bacterial chromosomes are highly condensed into a
structure called the nucleoid. Despite the high degree of compaction in the nucleoid, the …

The Escherichia coli chromosome is condensed into an ill-defined structure known as the
nucleoid. Nucleoid-associated DNA-binding proteins are involved in maintaining this …

Fis, the most abundant DNA-binding protein in Escherichia coli during rapid growth, has
been suspected to play an important role in defining nucleoid structure. Using bulk-phase …

FNR is a well-studied global regulator of anaerobiosis, which is widely conserved across
bacteria. Despite the importance of FNR and anaerobiosis in microbial lifestyles, the factors …
