A constitutively active promoter expresses Clts, a temperature sensitive cI repressor of the lambda phage. If the temperature is significantly below 37°C (body temperature), Clts is an active repressor for the cI lambda promoter. This promoter controls the transcription of a repressor protein, AraC. Therefore, if conditions are not 37°C, the AraC is not available, hence the pBAD promoter, controlled by AraC, is active and genes controlled by the pBAD promoter are transcribed. Accordingly, if the temperature is at 37°C, Clts is unstable and cannot repress the expression of AraC. AraC consequently inhibits the pBAD promoter and downstream genes are not expressed. | A constitutively active promoter expresses Clts, a temperature sensitive cI repressor of the lambda phage.

Temperature responsive repression system
A constitutively active promoter expresses Clts, a temperature sensitive cI repressor of the lambda phage. If the temperature is significantly below 37°C (body temperature), Clts is an active repressor for the cI lambda promoter. This promoter controls the transcription of a repressor protein, AraC. Therefore, if conditions are not 37°C, the AraC is not available, hence the pBAD promoter, controlled by AraC, is active and genes controlled by the pBAD promoter are transcribed. Accordingly, if the temperature is at 37°C, Clts is unstable and cannot repress the expression of AraC. AraC consequently inhibits the pBAD promoter and downstream genes are not expressed.
