Description
This part is a subset of the ars operon, which consists of a promoter and 5 genes: arsR, arsD, arsA, arsB, and arsC. This part consists of only arsR, a protein that represses the transcription of the ars operon; when bound to arsenic the protein arsR no longer represses the operon and the operon is transcribed.
