Transcription factor: AhrC

Factor type ArgR (Unique)
SWISS-PROT ND
SubtiList ND
Consensus seq. CATGAATAAAAATg/tCAAg/t (compiled consensus)
Comment novel mode of DNA recognition; represses the arginine biosynthesis genes and activates the arginine catabolism genes; positive role of AhrC may involve protein-protein interaction with RocR.
