The regulatory function of LexA is temperature-dependent in the deep-sea bacterium Shewanella piezotolerans WP3

The SOS response addresses DNA lesions and is conserved in the bacterial domain. The response is governed by the DNA binding protein LexA, which has been characterized in model microorganisms such as Escherichia coli. However, our understanding of its roles in deep-sea bacteria is limited. Here, the...
