Title: How Basal Transcription Initiation Kinetics Determine Regulatory Outcomes
Abstract: Classical transcription factors regulate the rate of bacterial transcription by recognizing sequence-dependent motifs in their target promoters. They then either interact productively with RNAP to enact activation or block access of the polymerase in order to enact repression. However, a growing class of factors are recruited to the promoter via the polymerase directly. Curiously, without exhibiting a clear sequence dependence, these factors are capable of differential regulation. Specifically, they activate some promoters while repressing others while utilizing the same molecular contacts. In my seminar, I will review our work dissecting the kinetic mechanism of two essential mycobacterial transcription factors and will describe a model of differential regulation for this class of factors.
