Functions
core promoter proximal region sequence-specific DNA binding / transcription factor activity, sequence-specific DNA binding
Processes
arabinose catabolic process / regulation of transcription, DNA-templated / transcription, DNA-templated
Components
cytosol
General Function
Transcription factor activity, sequence-specific dna binding
Specific Function
This protein controls the expression of at least six genes that are involved in the transport and catabolism of L-arabinose. It regulates initiation of transcription of the araBAD operon and it also controls its own synthesis. The L-arabinose operon displays both positive and negative regulation through AraC.
