Protein
HTH-type transcriptional regulator Cphy_2742
Organism
Lachnoclostridium phytofermentans (strain ATCC 700394 / DSM 18823 / ISDg)
Function
Involved in control of pectin and galacturonic acid metabolism. Probably represses a comprehensive set of pectin fermentation genes by binding a conserved palindrome at or downstream of their transcription start site to block transcription. In the presence of galacturonic acid may activate transcription of acetate synthesis and other aspects of carbon metabolism.
