OxyR

Introduction

Illustration of OxyR Activation

OxyR, a positive regulator of hydrogen peroxide-inducible genes in E. coli. The OxyR transcription factor regulates the H₂O₂ response of E. coli. H₂O₂ oxidizes OxyR Cys199 to an R-SOH that reacts with Cys208 in an intramolecular disulphide bond.

-OxyR is a transcription factor found in bacteria and is activated by oxidative stress.  A disulfide bond will form between 2 OxyR transcription factors to activate the transcription. In this form, OxyR induces transcription through binding to TFBS of OxyR-induced promoter. Thus, in the presence of ROS, OxyR activates transcription of the gene regulated by promoters.
