Promoters/Catalog/B. subtilis/Constitutive
The promoters of this section are B. subtilis promoters. The list beyond is the list of the promoters that are said to be constitutive. This means that their activity is supposed no to be regulated by any component of cell, and the gene should be transcribed all the time.
The sequence of these promoter are adapted to the σ factor of B. subtilis. However, some of these promoter also works in E. coli. Generally speaking, standard E. coli promoters don't work (or are very weak) in B. subtilis strains, whereas the contrary generally works. However, it doesn't mean that the efficiency will be the same in both strains. The pVeg promoter, for instance, works fine at a high level of expression in both E. coli and B. subtilis strains
Constitutive B. subtilis σA promoters
This section lists promoters that are recognized by B. subtilis σA RNA polymerase. σA is the major B. subtilis sigma factor, that recruit the rest of the complex forming the RNA polymerase. These promoters are generally active under most of the growth conditions (although the activity is maximal during the exponential growth phase).

Constitutive B. subtilis σB promoters
This section lists promoters that are recognized by B. subtilis σB RNAP. σB is the major stationary phase E. coli sigma factor. Use these promoters when you want high promoter activity during stationary phase or during starvation.
