The DegP promoter is dependent of Sigma E (and hence also the growth phase) and can not be induced only by over expression of e.g. CpxR. In comparison, the related Spy promoter (BBa_K239001), which is dependent on sigma factor 70, can be induced up to 40 fold by over expression of CpxR. (Bury-Moné et al. 2009) Experiments by the The UCL_London_2009 team have also showed that the activity of the DegP promoter, compared to the spy promoter, is much more dependent of the growth phase of the bacteria.
