Curator or user-submitted Comments:

WrbA was originally identified as a stationary phase TrpR-binding protein that affected the interaction of TrpR with its operator sites in vitro (Yang, 1993). However, subsequent experiments found similar effects with BSA, concluding that WrbA does not influence TrpR-operator binding in vitro (Grandori, 1998). Although WrbA may affect the association between Trp repressor and operators in stationary phase in vivo (Yang, 1993), this may be a non-specific effect. EcoArray search results indicate that wrbA transcripts are altered by rpoS, relA, trpA and trpR mutations, among others. wrbA is repressed by OxyS overexpression (Tjaden, 2006). otherPDB: 1ZWL(P.aeruginosa).
