    dct:description """
              The icsA gene of Shigella encodes a structural protein involved in colonization of the intestinal mucosa by bacteria. This gene is expressed upon invasion of the host and is controlled by a complex regulatory circuit involving the nucleoid protein H-NS, the AraC-like transcriptional activator VirF, and a 450 nt antisense RNA (RnaG) acting as transcriptional attenuator. We investigated on the interplay of these factors at the molecular level. DNase I footprints reveal that both H-NS and VirF bind to a region including the icsA and RnaG promoters. H-NS is shown to repress icsA transcription at 30°C but not at 37°C, suggesting a significant involvement of this protein in the temperature-regulated expression of icsA. We also demonstrate that VirF directly stimulates icsA transcription and is able to alleviate H-NS repression in vitro. According to these results, icsA expression is derepressed in hns- background and overexpressed when VirF is provided in trans. Moreover, we find that RnaG-mediated transcription attenuation depends on 80 nt at its 5'-end, a stretch carrying the antisense region. Bases engaged in the initial contact leading to sense-antisense pairing have been identified using synthetic RNA and DNA oligonucleotides designed to rebuild and mutagenize the two stem-loop motifs of the antisense region.
