Guanylate-binding proteins (GBPs) are interferon-inducible guanosine triphosphate hydrolases (GTPases) mediating host defense against intracellular pathogens. Their antimicrobial activity hinges on their ability to self-associate and coat pathogen-associated compartments or cytos ...
LysR-type transcription regulators (LTTRs) comprise one of the largest families of transcriptional regulators in bacteria. They are typically homo-tetrameric proteins and interact with promoter DNA of ~ 50–60 bp. Earlier biochemical studies have suggested that LTTR binding to pro ...
