Unique Properties of the Alpha-Helical DNA-Binding Protein KfrA Encoded by the IncU Incompatibility Group Plasmid RA3 and Its Host-Dependent Role in Plasmid Maintenance

KfrA, encoded on the broad-host-range RA3 plasmid, is an alpha-helical DNA-binding protein that acts as a transcriptional autoregulator. The KfrA(RA3) operator site overlaps the kfrA promoter and is composed of five 9-bp direct repeats (DRs). Here, the biological properties of KfrA were studied usin...
