    ..In general, crystal and solution structural analysis provides new information on the mechanism of the methylation of the fine-tuning ribosomal decoding center by the RsmH. ..
  6. Xue T, Zhao L, Sun H, Zhou X, Sun B. LsrR-binding site recognition and regulatory characteristics in Escherichia coli AI-2 quorum sensing. Cell Res. 2009;19:1258-68 pubmed publisher
    ..Furthermore, in agreement with the conclusion that phosphorylated AI-2 can relieve the repression of LsrR in previous studies, our data show that phospho-AI-2 renders LsrR unable to bind to its own promoter in vitro. ..
  7. Wu C, Cheng Y, Yin H, Song X, Li W, Zhou X, et al. Oxygen promotes biofilm formation of Shewanella putrefaciens CN32 through a diguanylate cyclase and an adhesin. Sci Rep. 2013;3:1945 pubmed publisher
    ..Regulation of DosD in aerobic biofilms is heavily dependent on an adhesin BpfA and the TISS. This study offers an insight into the molecular mechanism of oxygen-stimulated biofilm formation by S. putrefaciens CN32...
  8. Wu M, Tao Y, Liu X, Zang J. Structural basis for phosphorylated autoinducer-2 modulation of the oligomerization state of the global transcription regulator LsrR from Escherichia coli. J Biol Chem. 2013;288:15878-87 pubmed publisher
    ..Based on these observations, we propose that phosphorylated autoinducer-2 triggers the disassembly of the LsrR tetramer to activate the transcription of its target genes. ..
  9. Xing L, Zhu Y, Fang P, Wang J, Zeng F, Li X, et al. Crystallization and preliminary crystallographic studies of UbiG, an O-methyltransferase from Escherichia coli. Acta Crystallogr Sect F Struct Biol Cryst Commun. 2011;67:727-9 pubmed publisher
    ..2 Å, β = 105.3°. Both Matthews coefficient analysis and the self-rotation function suggested the presence of one molecule per asymmetric unit in the crystal, with a solvent content of 50.52% (V(M) = 2.48 Å(3) Da(-1)). ..
