Biochemical and structural analysis of the Streptomyces coelicolor Dps proteins. / Matthew D Hitchings

Swansea University Author: Matthew D Hitchings

Abstract

The three DNA protection proteins from starved cells (Dps) of Streptomyces coelicolor are members of the min-ferritin super family. Considered to be of major importance to stress response systems in microorganisms. Dps proteins can aid microbial survival in extreme conditions. The S. coelicolor Dps...
