smtB/ziaR	BacMet ID: BAC0366 Code for: Regulator Family: Contains 1 HTH arsR-type DNA-binding domain Sequence: FASTA Cross-database IDs: Link Organism: Cyanobacteria (e.g. Synechococcus elongatus (strain PCC 7942) (Anacystis nidulans R2)) Location: Chromosome Compound: Zinc (Zn) Description: Repressor protein smtB; regulates the metallothionein synthesis in transcrition level negatively; its a helix-turn-helix protein in the same family of arsR and cadC; binds at imperfect inverted repeat TGAAACA-GT-TATTCA between the transcription initiation site and the ribosome binding site for smtA; Transcriptional repressor of the Expression of the smtA gene. Binds two zinc ions per dimer. The complex of DNA and smtB is dissociated by zinc ions.
