Structure of a Wbl protein and implications for NO sensing by M. tuberculosis

Mycobacterium tuberculosis WhiB1 is a DNA-binding protein with a NO sensitive [4Fe-4S] cluster. Here the authors present the NMR structure of WhiB1 and suggest how loss of the iron-sulfur cluster through nitrosylation affects WhiB1 DNA binding and leads to transcriptional reprogramming.
