Description
colE promoter in its original form.colE promoter have two tandum SOS boxes, which put it under tighter control of LexA protein.When either of the SOS is bound by dimerized LexA protein, transcription of downstream gene will be inhibited. colE promotes the transcription of a gene which encodes colicin E, a bacteriocin produced by some strains of E.coli and released into the environment to reduce competition from other strains.
Notes
Original ColE promoter without any change.
