xylR

XylR is a protein that belongs to the AraC/XylS family. This regulator participates in controlling several genes involved in xylose utilization. XylR activates the xylAB and xylFGHR operons.

Promoter xylF

The xylose F promoter is activated by xylR-xylose, and may be negatively regulated by xylR. Two xylR halfsites are included as well as a CRP activator binding site.
