Crc (protein)
The Catabolite repression control (Crc) protein participates in suppressing expression of several genes involved in utilization of carbon sources in Pseudomonas bacteria. [2]Presence of organic acids triggers activation of Crc and in conjunction with the Hfq protein genes that metabolize a given carbon source are downregulated until another more favorable carbon source is depleted.[3] Crc-mediated regulation impact processes such as biofilm formation,[4] virulence [5] and antibiotic susceptibility.[6]

Interactions
Hfq and Crc bind to A-rich sequences in the ribosome binding sites of genes that code for carbon utilization enzymes and consequently suppress their translation.[7]
gollark: You SHOULD NOT trust them. You have NO VALID REASON to trust them. You have MANY GOOD REASONS to distrust them.
gollark: It's not no reason. We have reasons. You just don't seem to recognize them as valid.
gollark: You should not, in fact, be trusting said giant profit-maximizing entity and every future version of it and everywhere they might be sending all the data.
gollark: And they probably can make money off it.
gollark: Your argument seems to just be "I totally trust this giant profit-maximizing entity composed of thousands of people and also everyone associated with it and everyone who might be associated with it in the future".
