The AbrB protein of the spore-forming bacterium Bacillus subtilis is a repressor of numerous that is present in vegetatively growing cells and is inactivated or eliminated by the action of Spo0A at the end of the exponential phase of growth; AbrB is a DNA-binding protein that acts by repressing target genes (Banse et al., 2008) . This part can be used for inhibiting biofilm and sporulation formation in B. subtilis, it affects the production by binding into DNA and blocking transcription. It affects more than +100 genes as it is a major regulator (Zhu & Stülke, 2017).
