Transcription unit          
Name: xylFGHR
Gene(s): xylF, xylG, xylH, xylR   Genome Browser M3D Gene expression COLOMBOS
Evidence: [BTEI] Boundaries of transcription experimentally identified
[ITCR] Inferred through co-regulation
Reference(s): [1] Song S., et al., 1997
[2] Sumiya M., et al., 1995
Promoter
Name: xylFp
+1: 3731069
Distance from start of the gene: 62
Sequence: cgtaatcgaaagataaaaatctgtaattgttttcccctgtttagttgctaaaaattggttAcgtttatcgcggtgattgtt
Note(s): xylF is negatively regulated during entry into stationary phase. The effect by RpoS is likely indirect and might be mediated by an intermediate regulator that itself is directly regulated by RpoS Xu J,1995
