polA (DNA Polymerase I) DnaA-activated promoter

The nrd promoter (nrdP) is a cell-division dependent promoter.

Usage and Biology

The nrd operon in E. coli expresses ribonucleotide reductase, an enzyme that reduces ribonucleotides into deoxyribonucleotides and is involved in bacterial cell cycle (Sun 1994). The promoter region is highly regulated and contains several DnaA boxes, indicating that activity is partly affected by initiation of DNA replication (Messer 2002). The promoter for this operon was found to begin activation during initiation of DNA replication and is cell-cycle dependent (Sun 1992).
