Extended information on the protein

• Kinetic information

• Domains DNA-binding helix-turn-helix motif: AA 18 ... 37

• Modification

• Effectors of protein activity:2-oxoglutarate

Interactions:

• GltC-RocG

This interaction takes place in the presence of glutamate. It prevents the transcription activation of the gltAB operon. Note that RocG expression is strongly regulated.
