MarR family protein Rv2887 binds to a sequence upstream of the Rv0560c gene. (A) EMSA experiment using a PCR-amplified DNA probe spanning the upstream region of Rv0560c. Migration of the DNA probe was retarded compared to free-labeled DNA on addition of Rv2887. A labeled random DNA sequence of the same length as the target probe was used as a control (lane 1) (B) Dye primer-based DNase I footprinting shows that Rv2887 binds directly to a sequence upstream of Rv0560c. Electropherograms indicating the protection pattern of the region upstream of Rv0560c on digestion with Dnase I after incubation with (I) 0 μg (II) 0.45 μg or (III) 0.9 μg Rv2887 protein. (C) The protected DNA sequence. The DNA sequence upstream of Rv0560c showing the Rv2887 binding site (highlighted in light green).
