Protein
Transcriptional regulatory protein OmpR
Organism
Salmonella typhimurium (strain LT2 / SGSC1412 / ATCC 700720)
Function
The N-terminus of this protein is required for the transcriptional expression of both major outer membrane protein genes ompF and ompC; its C-terminal moiety mediates the multimerization of the OmpR protein. As a multimer, it turns on the expression of the ompC gene; as a monomer, it turns on the expression of the ompF gene (By similarity).
