  The binding of two dimers of IciA protein to the dnaA promoter 1P element enhances the binding of RNA polymerase to ...
The binding of DnaA protein to the DnaA box between the two promoters is followed by subsequent oligomerization of DnaA proteins over the two promoter regions (12).
As the intracellular level of DnaA protein is critical for initiation of chromosomal DNA replication (11), E.coli might adopt a fine tuning regulatory mechanism, rather than a simple on-off switch, for dnaA expression by using the DnaA protein concentration- dependent oligomerization as a controlling mechanism.
IciA function is dominant over that of DnaA protein and the mechanism may involve the ability of IciA protein to counteract the DnaA protein-dependent occlusion of RNA polymerase from the promoter 1P (12).
