General Function
DNA-bridging protein that has both architectural and regulatory roles (PubMed:18187505). Influences the organization of chromatin and gene expression by binding non-specifically to DNA, with a preference for AT-rich sequences, and bridging distant DNA segments (PubMed:20133735). Binds in the minor groove of AT-rich DNA (PubMed:21673140). Represses expression of multiple genes involved in a broad range of cellular processes, including major virulence factors or antibiotic-induced genes, such as iniBAC or efpA (PubMed:17590082), and genes important for adaptation of changing O(2) levels (PubMed:24895305). May also activate expression of some gene (PubMed:24895305). May coordinate global gene regulation and virulence (PubMed:20133735). Also protects mycobacteria against reactive oxygen intermediates during macrophage infection by acting as a physical barrier to DNA degradation (PubMed:19237572); the physical protection has been questioned (PubMed:24895305). A strain overexpressing this protein consumes O(2) more slowly than wild-type (PubMed:24895305).
