CC -!- FUNCTION: Member of the two-component regulatory system NtrB/NtrC,
CC which controls expression of the nitrogen-regulated (ntr) genes in
CC response to nitrogen limitation. Phosphorylated NtrC binds directly to
CC DNA and stimulates the formation of open promoter-sigma54-RNA
CC polymerase complexes (PubMed:2874557, PubMed:3304660, PubMed:2574599,
CC PubMed:1350679). Activates transcription of many genes and operons
CC whose products minimize the slowing of growth under nitrogen-limiting
CC conditions, including genes coding for glutamine synthetase (glnA),
CC transporters, amino acid permeases and catabolic enzymes
CC (PubMed:11121068). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11121068,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:1350679, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2574599,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:2874557, ECO:0000269|PubMed:3304660}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homodimer. Phosphorylation of the N-terminal receiver domain
CC leads to the formation of oligomers (PubMed:1350679). Can also form
CC phosphorylation-independent oligomers (PubMed:15208307).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1350679, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15208307}.
CC -!- INTERACTION:
CC P0AFB8; P0ACZ4: evgA; NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-1113197, EBI-548694;
CC P0AFB8; P0AFB5: glnL; NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-1113197, EBI-701156;
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: Contains an N-terminal receiver domain, a central output
CC domain, which hydrolyzes ATP, interacts with RNA polymerase and is
CC required for phosphorylation-dependent oligomerization, and a C-
CC terminal domain, which is involved in DNA binding, dimerization and
CC phosphorylation-independent oligomerization.
CC {ECO:0000305|PubMed:15208307}.
CC -!- PTM: Phosphorylated and dephosphorylated by NtrB (PubMed:2874557,
CC PubMed:2574599). Phosphorylation induces strong cooperative binding to
CC DNA (PubMed:1350679). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1350679,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:2574599, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2874557}.
