Transcription factor: RocR

Factor type NtrC/NifA
SWISS-PROT ND
SubtiList ND
Consensus seq. GCAAAATAATTTTGCA(T/C)T
Comment NtrC/NifA transcriptional activator (cf. LevR). Sigma 54-dependent activators generally bind two inverted repeat sequences called UAS, which are located approx. 100bp upstream from the -12/-24 promoters. DNA bending is used for activation (AhrC may be involved). Inducible by ornithine or citrulline? At least upstream UAS1 is the target of RocR
