RNA polymerase, alpha subunit; DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates.

DNA primase; RNA polymerase that catalyzes the synthesis of short RNA molecules used as primers for DNA polymerase during DNA replication.

RNA polymerase, beta prime subunit; DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates.

RNA polymerase, omega subunit; Promotes RNA polymerase assembly. Latches the N- and C- terminal regions of the beta' subunit thereby facilitating its interaction with the beta and alpha subunits (By similarity).

Catabolite activator protein (CAP); A global transcription regulator. Complexes with cyclic AMP (cAMP) which allosterically activates DNA binding to regulate transcription. It can act as an activator, repressor, coactivator or corepressor. Induces a severe bend in DNA. Acts as a negative regulator of its own synthesis as well as for adenylate cyclase (cyaA), which generates cAMP. Plays a major role in carbon catabolite repression (CCR) (By similarity).

dnaK suppressor protein; Transcription factor that acts by binding directly to the RNA polymerase (RNAP). Required for negative regulation of rRNA expression and positive regulation of several amino acid biosynthesis promoters. Also required for regulation of fis expression.

Regulator of sigma D; Binds RpoD and negatively regulates RpoD-mediated transcription activation by preventing the interaction between the primary sigma factor RpoD with the catalytic core of the RNA polymerase and with promoter DNA. May be involved in replacement of the RNA polymerase sigma subunit from RpoD to RpoS during the transition from exponential growth to the stationary phase.

DNA gyrase, subunit B; A type II topoisomerase that negatively supercoils closed circular double-stranded (ds) DNA in an ATP-dependent manner to modulate DNA topology and maintain chromosomes in an underwound state, and also catalyzes the interconversion of other topological isomers of double-stranded DNA rings, including catenanes and knotted rings. Replenishes negative supercoiling downstream of highly transcribed genes to help control overall chromosomal supercoiling density. E.coli makes 15% more negative supercoils in pBR322 plasmid DNA than S.typhimurium; the S.typhimurium GyrB s [...]

Sigma N factor of RNA polymerase; Sigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released. This sigma factor is responsible for the expression of enzymes involved in arginine catabolism. The open complex (sigma-54 and core RNA polymerase) serves as the receptor for the receipt of the melting signal from the remotely bound activator protein GlnG(NtrC).
