Dual Repression by Fe 2+ -Fur and Mn 2+ -MntR of the mntH Gene, Encoding an NRAMP-Like Mn 2+ Transporter in Escherichia coli
Open accessAbstract
The uptake of Mn 2+ , a cofactor for several enzymes in Escherichia coli , is mediated by MntH, a proton-dependent metal transporter, which also recognizes Fe 2+ with lower affinity. MntH belongs to the NRAMP family of eukaryotic Fe 2+ and Mn 2+ transporters. In E. coli strains with chromosomal mntH-lacZ fusions, mntH was partially repressed by both Mn 2+ and Fe 2+ . Inactivation of fur resulted in the loss of Fe 2+ -dependent repression of mntH transcription, demonstrating that Fe 2+ repression depends on the global iron regulator Fur. However, these fur mutants still showed Mn 2+ -dependent repression of mntH . The Mn 2+ -responsive transcriptional regulator of mntH was identified as the gene product of o155 (renamed MntR). mntR mutants were impaired in Mn 2+ but not Fe 2+ repression of mntH transcription. Binding of purified MntR to the mntH operator was manganese dependent. The binding region was localized by DNase I footprinting analysis and covers a nearly perfect palindrome. The Fur binding site, localized within 22 nucleotides of the mntH operator by in vivo operator titration assays, resembles the Fur-box consensus sequence.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
