CC -!- FUNCTION: Binds tightly to dsDNA (PubMed:10844682). Acts as a global
CC transcriptional regulator through its ability to bind to AT-rich DNA
CC sequences (PubMed:1423593, PubMed:16933988, PubMed:21673140). Binds in
CC the minor groove of AT-rich DNA (PubMed:21673140). Was found to bind
CC 746 genes, about half of which show no change in expression in
CC disruption experiments suggesting these sites are important for
CC nucleoid structure (PubMed:16933988). On a global level genes bound by
CC H-NS are expressed at a lower than average level; H-NS is excluded from
CC binding to highly transcribed genes and does not co-localize with RNA
CC polymerase in DNA-binding studies during exponential growth in rich
CC medium (PubMed:16933988). The best correlation for H-NS binding is AT-
CC content rather than predicted DNA curvature (PubMed:16933988). Has a
CC strong preference for DNA that has been recently acquired by horizontal
CC gene transfer, binding strongly to Salmonella pathogenicity islands 1
CC and 2 (SPI1 and SPI2); this offers the selective advantage of silencing
CC foreign DNA while keeping it in the genome in case of need
CC (PubMed:16933988). DNA-binding influences plasmid DNA topology
CC (PubMed:1423593). For the proU locus (the proV-proW-proX operon)
CC inhibits transcription at low osmolarity by binding to AT-rich, curved,
CC DNA downstream of the transcription start site of proV; repression is
CC greater when more than 1 curved DNA sequence is present
CC (PubMed:1423593). It plays a role in the thermal control of pili
CC production (By similarity). It is subject to transcriptional auto-
CC repression (By similarity). It binds preferentially to the upstream
CC region of its own gene recognizing two segments of DNA on both sides of
CC a bend centered around -150 (By similarity).
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P0ACF8, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10844682,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:1423593, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16933988,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:21673140}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Forms oligomers of increasing size with increasing protein
CC concentration (PubMed:10844682, PubMed:23515315). The fragment of 1-83
CC probably forms oligomers of 4 dimeric units at 10 degrees Celsius, at
CC 40 degrees Celsius only dimers are formed (PubMed:20798056). Binds Hha
CC and YdgT (also known as cnu); crystal structures suggest each H-NS
CC dimer could bind 2 Hha monomers on opposites sides (PubMed:23515315).
CC Probably also binds StpA (By similarity).

CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:20798056, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23515315}.
CC -!- INTERACTION:
CC P0A1S2; P0A1S2: hns; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-15873459, EBI-15873459;
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm, nucleoid
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P0ACF8}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: Composed of 2 domains (approximately residues 1-64 and 89-136)
CC joined by a flexible linker. The isolated N-terminus (1-64) forms a
CC trimer, probably via coiled-coil interactions (PubMed:10844682,
CC PubMed:11237622). The isolated N-terminus plus linker fragment
CC (residues 1-89) forms homooligomers of increasing size with increasing
CC protein concentration, while the isolated C-terminus fragment is a
CC monomer (PubMed:10844682). A shorter fragment (residues 1-46) interacts
CC with Hha (PubMed:23515315). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10844682,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:11237622, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23515315}.
CC -!- DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE: Loss of osmotic regulation of the proU locus,
CC loss of changes in plasmid linking number (PubMed:1423593). 2X
CC decreased growth rate, which is partially restored by a mutation
CC preventing expression of SPI2, increased expression of about half of
CC the genes to which H-NS binds (PubMed:16933988). Note strain LT2 has
CC point mutation in rpoS which decreases its translation efficiency, in
CC the presence of wild-type rpoS, deletion of hns is lethal
CC (PubMed:16933988). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1423593,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:16933988}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the histone-like protein H-NS family.
CC {ECO:0000305}.
