Definition of Repressor. Meaning of Repressor. Synonyms of Repressor

- bind to the repressor and make it bind to the operator tightly, which decreases transcription. A repressor that binds with a co-repressor is termed an...
- The LexA repressor or LexA (Locus for X-ray sensitivity A) is a transcriptional repressor (EC 3.4.21.88) that represses SOS response genes coding primarily...
- allolactose binds to the lac repressor, causing an allosteric change in its shape. In its changed state, the lac repressor is unable to bind tightly to...
- Tryptophan repressor (or trp repressor) is a transcription factor involved in controlling amino acid metabolism. It has been best studied in Escherichia...
- either allolactose or IPTG, to the repressor affects the distribution of repressor between the two shapes. Thus, repressor with inducer bound is stabilized...
- The Ribose repressor (RbsR) is a bacterial DNA-binding transcription repressor protein and a member of the LacI/GalR protein family. In Escherichia coli...
- encodes two repressors: the Cro repressor that acts to turn off early gene transcription during the lytic cycle, and the lambda or cI repressor required...
- the repressor gene (trp R) that binds to the operator. In the lac operon, lactose binds to the repressor protein and prevents it from repressing gene...
- activating ligand of a repressor protein. For example, the E. coli tryptophan repressor (TrpR) is only able to bind to DNA and repress transcription of the...
- An enzyme repressor is a substance that negatively regulates the amount of an enzyme by decreasing the rate of its biosynthesis. It is the opposite of...
