The sigma factors of bacterial RNA polymerase are required for recognition of promoters in transcription initiation. Most sigma factors share several regions with significant homology in their amino acid sequences (regions 1-4). Some primary sigma factors carry a large nonconserved segment between regions 1 and 2. The binding of an sigma factor to the core enzyme alters the structure and properties of the sigma factor, but little is known about the binding mechanism and subsequent reactions. In this report, we employed the protein footprinting method to investigate the alteration of the structure and function of Escherichia coli sigma70 by binding to core enzyme and promoter DNA.
