BlcR, repressor of blcABC operon, with promoter and RBS
Usage and biology
BlcR, a gene of Agrobacterium tumefaciens, represses the blcABC-operon. The latter enables the bacterium to grow on γ-butyrolactone as carbon and energy source as depicted in the following figure(Pan et al. 2013).
The Blc-Operon and the catabolism of GBL in A. tumefaciens. GHB: γ-hydroxybutyrate; GBL: γ-butyrolactone; SSA: Succinic semialdehyde; SA: Succinate.
Characterization – BlcR function
We performed EMSA-shifts and verified: BlcR binds to the operator site described in Pan et al. 2013
