Figure 9. Model for Lrp and FimZ-mediated regulation of type 1 fimbriae production in Salmonella.

Figure 9

(A) Summary of the regulatory circuit for type 1 fimbriae production. Arrowed and blunted lines indicate activation and repression, respectively. (B) Molecular model for Lrp and FimZ-mediated regulation of type 1 fimbriae production. Dotted arrows, access to binding sites; ×, competitive exclusion of competitor binding; and arrowed flag indicates the transcription start site [15]. [High], at high concentration of Lrp or FimZ; and [Low], at low concentration of Lrp or FimZ.
