YenR is an activator originated from Yersinia enterocolitica. It induces the expression of the yenbox_WT, the yenbox fused with a wildtype promoter from Y. enterocolitica.

Both YenR and the yenbox_WT are parts in the Yen system, which is a homolougous system to the Lux system. It is the quorum sensing system derivated from Y. enterocolitica and it senses the presence of Y. enterocoliticas unique quorum sensing molecules, the OHHL:s (3-oxo-hexanoyl homoserine lactone). When the OHHL enters the host, it interacts with YenR, making it loose its shape and thereby preventing it from binding to the yenbox. So in the presence of Y. enterocolitica the induction of the expression will be lost.
