A general profile for the MerR family of transcriptional regulators constructed using the semi-automated Provalidator tool.

abstract：:Bacteria can manipulate their surrounding environment through the secretion of proteins into other living organisms and into the extracellular milieu. In Gram stain negative bacteria this process is mediated by different types of secretion systems from type I through type VI secretion system (T1SS-T6SS). In this study...
