'''Crystal structure of FapR- a global regulator of fatty acid biosynthesis in B. subtilis'''<br />


==Overview==
==Crystal structure of FapR- a global regulator of fatty acid biosynthesis in B. subtilis==
Malonyl-CoA is an essential intermediate in fatty acid synthesis in all, living cells. Here we demonstrate a new role for this molecule as a global, regulator of lipid homeostasis in Gram-positive bacteria. Using in vitro, transcription and binding studies, we demonstrate that malonyl-CoA is a, direct and specific inducer of Bacillus subtilis FapR, a conserved, transcriptional repressor that regulates the expression of several genes, involved in bacterial fatty acid and phospholipid synthesis. The crystal, structure of the effector-binding domain of FapR reveals a homodimeric, protein with a thioesterase-like 'hot-dog' fold. Binding of malonyl-CoA, promotes a disorder-to-order transition, which transforms an open, ligand-binding groove into a long tunnel occupied by the effector molecule, in the complex. This ligand-induced modification propagates to the, helix-turn-helix motifs, impairing their productive association for DNA, binding. Structure-based mutations that disrupt the FapR-malonyl-CoA, interaction prevent DNA-binding regulation and result in a lethal, phenotype in B. subtilis, suggesting this homeostatic signaling pathway as, a promising target for novel chemotherapeutic agents against Gram-positive, pathogens.

== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/FAPR_BACSU FAPR_BACSU] Transcription factor involved in regulation of membrane lipid biosynthesis by repressing genes involved in fatty acid and phospholipid metabolism. Binds to the 5'-TTAGTANNNNNTANTAA-3' consensus sequence found in the promoter of fabHAF operon (containing fabHA and fabF genes), yhdO and fapR genes and prevents their expression. Its action is probably modulated by malonyl-CoA.<ref>PMID:12737802</ref>
