Description
promoter region containing an operator and a promoter controlled by FNR that allow the repression of the downstream gene in anaerobic conditions
Notes
This promoter region correspond to a modified ndh promoter region of Escherichia coli. The second FNR binding site (FNRII) was modified to obtain a perfect consensus motif, improving the strength of the repression (Meng et al., 1997).
