Recent advances in the characterization of Crl, the unconventional activator of the stress sigma factor σS/RpoS

The bacterial RNA polymerase (RNAP) holoenzyme is a multisubunit core enzyme associated with a σ factor that is required for promoter-specific transcription initiation. Besides a primary σ responsible for most of the gene expression during active growth, bacteria contain alternative σ factors that c...
