| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We performed the modified high resolution ChIP-seq analysis of E. coli nucleoid proteins to identify the binding regions of nucleoid proteins in base pair resolution. The results indicated that some nucleoid proteins recognize specific sequences at over 3000 regions in E. coli genome, while we could not find the specific recognition sequences of H-NS and HU. Our results also suggested that each nucleoid protein may independently interact with genomic DNA. However, because the independent interaction of each nucleoid protein affects to the functions of other nucleoid proteins, there is the inter-relation of nucleoid proteins to form functional nucleoid structure in E. coli cells.
