Organism
Yersinia pestis
Length
263 amino acids
Function
The ModE-Mo complex acts as a repressor of the modABC operon, involved in the transport of molybdate. Upon binding molybdate, the conformation of the protein changes, promoting dimerization of ModE-Mo. The protein dimer is then competent to bind a DNA region, upstream of the modABC operon. Acts also as an enhancer of the expression of genes coding for molybdoenzymes, both directly and indirectly (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the ModE family.

Protein
DNA-binding transcriptional dual regulator ModE
Organism
Escherichia coli (strain K12)
Length
262 amino acids
Function
Functions as an intracellular molybdate sensor. The ModE-Mo complex acts as a repressor of the modABC operon, which is involved in the transport of molybdate (PubMed:8550508). Binds modA promoter DNA in the absence of molybdate, however molybdate binding confers increased DNA affinity (PubMed:9210473, PubMed:9044285). Binds the promoter of moaA activating its transcription; binding is not enhanced by molybdate (PubMed:9044285). The protein dimer binds the consensus palindrome sequence 5'-TATAT-N7-TAYAT-3' and a variant 5'-TGTGT-N7-TGYGT-3' (PubMed:9210473, PubMed:9044285, PubMed:16205910). Acts as a regulator of the expression of 67 genes, many of which encode molybdoenzymes, acts both directly and indirectly (PubMed:9466267, PubMed:10206709, PubMed:16205910). ModE also binds tungstate (PubMed:9210473, PubMed:11259434).
