Function
LYSG_MYCTU Positively regulates the expression of the exporter LysE and represses its own expression. Activity requires the presence of a coinducer, lysine or histidine. Acts by binding to lysG-lysE promoter region. Also up-regulates the expression of ppsB, ppsC and ppsD, by binding to the upstream region of ppsB.[1]
