AraC family transcriptional regulator
AraC family transcriptional regulator contains a helix-turn-helix DNA-binding motif and controls the expression of genes with diverse biological functions including metabolism, stress response, and virulence
helix-turn-helix domain-containing protein
AraC family transcriptional regulator N-terminal domain-containing protein
This family represents the N-terminus of bacterial ARAC-type transcriptional regulators. In E. coli, these regulate the L-arabinose operon through sensing the presence of arabinose, and when the sugar is present, transmitting this information from the arabinose-binding domains to the protein's DNA-binding domains [1]. This family might represent the N-terminal arm of the protein, which binds to the C-terminal DNA binding domains to hold them in a state where the protein prefers to loop and remain non-activating [2]. All family members contain the Pfam:PF00165 domain. [1]. 12683999. Mutational analysis of residue roles in AraC function. Ross JJ, Gryczynski U, Schleif R;. J Mol Biol 2003;328:85-93. [2]. 9600837.
