Browse Regulatory parts!
Regulatory parts are those which provide binding regions for RNA polymerase, the enzyme which performs the act of transcription (the conversion of DNA to RNA).
Some sub-categories of Regulatory parts are:
- constituitive: parts which allow for continual transcription of parts. Often these parts can be de-activated by the addition of ligand. Examples include Part:BBa_R0040, Part:BBa_R0011
- ligand-activated: parts which are continually "off", but allow for activation through the addition. Examples include Part:BBa_R0080
