DESCRIPTION

Also known as NAGR_BACSU, nagR, yvoA. Main transcriptional repressor of genes involved in N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) transport and utilization (PubMed:21602348, PubMed:20047956, PubMed:24673833). Represses the expression of the nagAB and nagP operons by binding directly within their upstream regions (PubMed:21602348, PubMed:24673833). Binds to the DNA consensus sequence 5'-ATTGGTATAGACAACT-3' (PubMed:21602348). Also acts as a weak repressor of mapB expression (PubMed:16207374). Homodimer (PubMed:19342794, PubMed:20047956, PubMed:25564531). Forms dimers via the C-terminal effector-binding domain (PubMed:20047956). At high concentrations, probably forms polymers along the DNA (PubMed:24673833).
