The protein WhiBTM4 from mycobacteriophage TM4 serves as a transcription regulator in bacteria such as M. smegmatis, in which it inhibits WhiB2. When WhiBTM4 was expressed in M. smegmatis, it caused the cells to lose acid-fast properties and created long, branched cells. WhiBTM4 caused these changes, in which the results were similar to a WhiB2 knockout protein (Fig. 2). When M. smegmatis contained the protein WhiBTM4, WhiB2 mRNA levels (measured using quantitative RT-PCR) greatly decreased compared to the wildtype, which only contained pSD24 (Fig. 3B). A decrease in mRNA levels suggests that the mycobacteriophage TM4 protein WhiBTM4 inhibits transcription of WhiB2 in M. smegmatis. WhiBTM4 binds only to a DNA WhiB2 promoter, which shows that transcription is regulated through DNA (Fig 6E). This is shown by the band created by the protein/DNA complex in figure 6 B-E.
