Summary
CRP-S are specialized CRP-dependent promoters that also require the Sxy gene product for expression (Cameron, 2006). [More information is available at EcoGene: EG13720]. Sxy is required for transcription from a subset of CRP-activated promoters. [More information is available at EcoCyc: G6494].
