FsrA: Fur-regulated sRNA which binds the binding site sdhC

This part was generated with the RFC10 standard and has the following prefix and suffix:

prefix with EcoRI, NotI and XbaI: GAATTCGCGGCCGCTTCTAGAG
suffix with SpeI, NotI and PstI: TACTAGTAGCGGCCGCTGCAG

Sites of restriction enzymes generating compatible overhangs have the same color: EcoRI and PstI in blue, NotI in green, XbaI and SpeI in red.

FsrA: a small RNA Represses Expression of Succinate Dehydrogenase

Regulation of bacterial iron homeostasis is often controlled by the iron-sensing ferric uptake repressor (Fur). The Bacillus subtilis Fur protein acts as an iron-dependent repressor for siderophore biosynthesis and iron transport proteins. Furthermore it also coordinates an iron-sparing response that acts to repress the expression of iron-rich proteins (e.g. succinate dehydrogenase) when iron is limited. It has been shown that the downregulation of succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) is most likely caused by complementary binding of a small RNA, named fsrA, to the leader region of the sdhCAB mRNA, namely SdhC' (Fig. 1).
