BBa_J100181 1 BBa_J100181 soxS promoter 2014-09-10T11:00:00Z 2015-08-31T04:08:23Z The soxS gene Under superoxide stress, the SoxR protein is activated. This triggers the transcription of a second regulatory gene, soxS, when its base sequence is fully intact. The function of this process is to activate superoxide stress genes in Escherichia coli. When soxS is artificially shortened, however, the binding of the SoxR protein turns the promoter off, making it repressible. In this experiment, the absence of the SoxR protein under chemical conditions should allow the shortened soxS promoter to remain active. Hidalgo & Demple.
