Bacterial sensing: A putative amphipathic helix in RsiV is the switch for activating σ(V) in response to lysozyme

Extra Cytoplasmic Function (ECF) σ factors are a diverse group of alternate σ factors bacteria use to respond to changes in the environment. The Bacillus subtilis ECF σ factor σ(V) responds to lysozyme. In the absence of lysozyme, σ(V) is held inactive by the anti-σ factor, RsiV. In the presence of...
