Disease relevance of hupB

Promoters and autogenous control of the Escherichia coli hupA and hupB genes [1].

High impact information on hupB

Upon introduction of an HU-overproducing plasmid carrying either the hupB or the hupA gene into the wild-type and hup single deletion mutants, the intracellular levels of mRNA from the chromosomal hup genes are reduced [1].
Both hupB and hupA genes possess a DNA sequence with a rho-independent transcriptional terminator in their respective regions downstream from the coding regions [1].
