Reconstructing promoter activity from Lux bioluminescent reporters (2017)
Journal Article
Iqbal, M., Doherty, N., Page, A. M., Qazi, S. N., Ajmera, I., Lund, P. A., …Stekel, D. J. (2017). Reconstructing promoter activity from Lux bioluminescent reporters. PLoS Computational Biology, 13(9), Article e1005731. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pcbi.1005731

The bacterial Lux system is used as a gene expression reporter. It is fast, sensitive and non-destructive, enabling high frequency measurements. Originally developed for bacterial cells, it has also been adapted for eukaryotic cells, and can be used... Read More about Reconstructing promoter activity from Lux bioluminescent reporters.

Intrinsic disorder in the partitioning protein KorB persists after co-operative complex formation with operator DNA and KorA (2017)
Journal Article
Hyde, E. I., Callow, P., Rajasekar, K. V., Timmins, P., Patel, T. P., Siligardi, G., …Scott, D. J. (2017). Intrinsic disorder in the partitioning protein KorB persists after co-operative complex formation with operator DNA and KorA. Biochemical Journal, 474(18), 3121-3135. https://doi.org/10.1042/BCJ20170281

© 2017 The Author(s). The ParB protein, KorB, from the RK2 plasmid is required for DNA partitioning and transcriptional repression. It acts co-operatively with other proteins, including the repressor KorA. Like many multifunctional proteins, KorB con...
