Description (originally from EcoCyc[1][2]) FecAR Signal Transduction System
Comments (originally from EcoCyc[1]) FecARI are responsible for ferric citrate dependent induction of the ferric citrate uptake system. When the inducer, ferric citrate, binds FecA, which is also responsible for transport of ferric citrate across the outer membrane, a signal is transmitted across the outer membrane to the cytoplasmic membrane protein FecR. FecR transmits the signal across the cytoplasmic membrane and activates the σ70 family protein FecI in the cytoplasm. FecI directs RNA polymerase to express fecABCDE, which encodes the ferric citrate outer membrane receptor and the ferric citrate ABC transporter, as well as fecIR [3][4][5][6][3][4][5][6][7][5][8]
