Allostery through DNA drives phenotype switching
Most insights on DNA-mediated allostery upon transcription factor (TF) binding were either based on artificial promoters or found to be short-ranged. Here authors use single-molecule FRET and cryo-EM to show that Bacillus subtilis bacteria utilize long-range allostery in a stochastic and reversible...
