Transcription factor: SenS

Factor type Unique (RNA POLYMERASE SIGMA FACTORS)
SWISS-PROT P21344
SubtiList BG10747
Consensus seq. ND
Comment shows partial homology with the N-terminal core binding domain of sigma factors and a helix-turn-helix motif. Stimulates the expression of several extracellular protein genes during the onset of stationary phase. The 9bp sequence TTTAGATAA might be the binding consensus
