LexA also known as the LexA protein is a bacterial transcriptional repressor well-studied in Escherichia coli. The LexA protein has a molecular mass of approximately 22 kilodaltons. It is primarily expressed in the cytoplasm of bacterial cells where it plays an important role in controlling the expression of several genes. The LexA protein acts by binding to specific DNA sequences known as 'SOS boxes' found in the promoter regions of genes involved in DNA repair and cell division thereby repressing their transcription under normal conditions.
Biological function summary

LexA plays a critical function in the bacterial SOS response to DNA damage. When DNA damage occurs the LexA protein is part of the SOS regulon a regulatory network that includes genes involved in DNA repair cell cycle arrest and mutagenesis. Upon sensing DNA damage LexA undergoes autocleavage facilitated by the RecA protein leading to derepression of the SOS genes. The processes controlled by LexA are essential for the survival of bacteria under stressful conditions ensuring repair and recovery from DNA damage.

Pathways

LexA is central in the SOS response pathway a well-characterized system activated in response to DNA damage in bacteria. This pathway involves interaction with RecA which promotes LexA autocleavage when bound to single-stranded DNA. The regulatory orchestration between LexA and RecA is important for mediating the induction of DNA repair enzymes and cell division inhibitors ensuring bacterial adaptation and survival. Another interconnected pathway is the DNA repair mechanism which is important for genomic integrity maintenance in bacteria.

The LexA protein indirectly affects antibiotic resistance through alteration in the SOS response pathway. Mutations affecting LexA function can lead to increased mutation rates and the propagation of antibiotic resistance genes. Moreover LexA has implications in bacterial pathogenicity where inducement of the SOS response can enhance virulence factors in some bacterial strains. The understanding of LexA functions could provide novel insights for developing strategies to combat bacterial resistance as the regulation of the SOS pathway and related proteins like RecA might be targeted to curb the adaptability of pathogenic bacteria.

일반 정보

기능

Represses a number of genes involved in the response to DNA damage (SOS response), including recA and lexA. Binds to the 16 bp palindromic sequence 5'-CTGTATATATATACAG-3'. In the presence of single-stranded DNA, RecA interacts with LexA causing an autocatalytic cleavage which disrupts the DNA-binding part of LexA, leading to derepression of the SOS regulon and eventually DNA repair. Implicated in hydroxy radical-mediated cell death induced by hydroxyurea treatment (PubMed : 20005847). The SOS response controls an apoptotic-like death (ALD) induced (in the absence of the mazE-mazF toxin-antitoxin module) in response to DNA damaging agents that is mediated by RecA and LexA (PubMed : 22412352). Genetic interactions among priB, dam, lexA, nagC, polA, rdgB, rdgB, rep and uup link the PriA-PriB replication restart pathway to DNA double-strand break repair (PubMed : 36326440).
