OxyR

Introduction

Introduction

The Escherichia coli OxyR transcription factor senses H2O2 to activate transcription, and is activated through the formation of an intramolecular disulfide bond.

There are promoters that can be activated by OxyR: TrxCp(Part:BBa_K1104201), HemHp(Part:BBa_K1104202), ahpC(Part:BBa_K362001), sufA(Part:BBa_K362005).

The OxyR-induced promoters: TrxCp(Part:BBa_K1104201) and HemHp(Part:BBa_K1104202) are parts created by our team [http://2013.igem.org/Team:NYMU-Taipei/Modeling/MainParts NYMU_Taipei].(Come to the [http://2013.igem.org/Team:NYMU-Taipei/Experiment/Wet_Lab Wet Lab] page to see our part list.)

The OxyR-induced promoters: sufA(Part:BBa_K362005)

Literature Study of OxyR

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.
