− | The "arabinose regulator," AraC, is a transcription factor that regulates transcription of several genes and operons involved in arabinose catabolism and transport. It coregulates with another transcriptional regulator, CRP; both are transcription factors involved in l-arabinose degradation. These regulators bind cooperatively to activate transcription of five operons related to transport, catabolism, and autoregulation of l-arabinose. Transcription of these operons is induced when ''E. coli'' is grown in the absence of glucose and when the physiological inducer, l-arabinose, binds to the AraC regulator. In the absence of glucose, cellular cyclic AMP levels are high and cyclic AMP forms a dimeric complex with CRP to coregulate with AraC. | + | "The "arabinose regulator," AraC, is a transcription factor that regulates transcription of several genes and operons involved in arabinose catabolism and transport.

arabinose regulator (araC) coding sequence
This sequence is a copy of the sequence 70,387 -> 71,265 from E. coli K-12 MG1655 which is the coding sequence of the pBAD repressor araC.
