GeneRIFs: Gene References Into Functions

What's a GeneRIF?
  1. The malI promoter is repressed by MalI binding from position +3 to position +18, downstream of the malI transcript start.
    Title: Targets for the MalI repressor at the divergent Escherichia coli K-12 malX-malI promoters.
  2. The malI promoter drives transcription initiation from a location 85 bp upstream from the malX transcript start and it is active without the CRP. Expression from the malI promoter can be stimulated by the CRP.
