A σ-DNA interactions in E. coli σ70-RPo (PDB: 6CA0), M. tuberculosis σH-RPo (PDB: 5ZX2), S. aureus σA-RPo, and σB-RPo. Yellow, σ; salmon, nontemplate strand DNA; red, template strand DNA; green, −35 element; blue, −10 element. B Sequence alignment of σB orthologs from S. aureus (Sau), Bacillus subtilis (Bsu), Bacillus cereus (Bce), Clostridium difficile (Cdi), Listeria monocytogenes (Lmo), and Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). The DNA interacting residues of S. aureus σB are indicated by black triangles.
