Expression

Organism Comment Expression
Escherichia coli addition of Fe2+ decreases yqjH expression starting at 100 nM, with a maximum repression of 4fold occurring at 0.01 mM Fe2+. Addition of CoCl2 concentrations of more than 500 nM also repress yqjH expression by about 50% down
Escherichia coli YqjI-dependent transcriptional repression is reduced when cells are exposed to elevated nickel levels, resulting in increased expression of yqjH. Upon addition of NiCl2, yqjH expression increases starting at 100 nM NiCl2, with maximum induction by 0.001 mM NiCl2 (42%). Deletion of yqjI leads to constitutive expression levels of yqjH that are 30fold higher than wild type basal expression levels up
