| Research Abstract |
Bacteria exploit signaling systems to respond to deleterious effects of stresses or sudden changes in the environment. In the case of Bacillus subtilis, stress information converges on and is transmitted to the general stress response transcription factorσ^B, leading to the expression of more than 200 general stress genes to exclude stresses or to repair the damage. In this study, I determined X-ray crystal structures of the N-terminal PAS domain and the C-terminal PPM-phosphatase domain of RsbP, an essential multi-domain protein required to activateσB in response to energy limitation.
