CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF AN ENGINEERED CRO MONOMER BOUND NONSPECIFICALLY TO DNA
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 9684880
Function
[RCRO_LAMBD] Cro represses genes normally expressed in early phage development and is necessary for the late stage of lytic growth. It does this by binding to the OL and OR operators regions normally used by the repressor protein for lysogenic maintenance.
About this Structure
3orc is a 3 chain structure with sequence from Enterobacteria phage lambda. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
