FliZ is an activator of class 2 flagellar gene expression in Salmonella enterica. To understand its role in flagellar assembly, we investigated how FliZ affects gene expression dynamics. We demonstrate that FliZ participates in a positive-feedback loop that induces a kinetic switch in class 2 gene expression.
FliZ 是沙门氏菌中 2 类鞭毛基因表达的激活蛋白。为了理解其在鞭毛组装中的作用,我们研究了 FliZ 如何影响基因表达动力学。我们证明 FliZ 参与了一个正反馈回路,该回路诱导 2 类基因表达的动力学开关。
