Factor For Inversion Stimulation Protein |
|
| HIN Recombinational Enhancer Binding Protein; Inversion Stimulation Factor | |
| A highly abundant DNA binding protein whose expression is strongly correlated with the growth phase of bacteria. The protein plays a role in regulating DNA topology and activation of RIBOSOMAL RNA transcription. It was originally identified as a factor required for inversion stimulation by the Hin recombinase of SALMONELLA and Gin site-specific recombinase of BACTERIOPHAGE MU. | |
