Functional information

Function Uniprot Transcriptional repressor of the gluconate operon (gntRKPZ), which encodes the proteins for gluconate utilization. Represses mRNA synthesis by binding to the gnt operator; the binding is suppressed by gluconate or glucono-delta-lactone.
Role Repressor
Protein family GntR
