Gifsy1 promoters and Gifsy1 repressor gogR

Gifsy1 is a temperate phage present in many of the Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium strains. This part contains the Gifsy1 promoters and the Gifsy1 repressor. The promoters are divergent; consisting of pR[Gifsy1] and pRM[Gifsy1]. Downstream of the pRM[Gifsy1] promoter is the repressor gogR. gogR binds to the operator regions located between the two divergent promoters and is predicted to act both as an activator of the pRM[Gifsy1] and a repressor of the pR[Gifsy1]. The regulatory system is similar to the one found in lambda phages but induction is repressor cleavage independent. Instead small lexA regulated anti-repressor proteins bind to the repressor and prevents its DNA activity. The part has been used and tested in E. Coli.
