Gensor Unit       
Name: IclR
Description: Molecular biology level
Detailed: In the presence of pyruvate, IclR negatively regulates the expression of genes required for tricarboxylic acid cycle and glyoxylate cycle and for regulation of them. Under these conditions, IclR is modified to IclR-pyruvate, binds its target sites preventing the expression of its regulated genes. In the absence of pyruvate, Iclr unbinds its target sites enabling the expression of its regulated genes.
Less detailed: In the presence of pyruvate IclR negatively regulates the expression of genes needed for tricarboxylic acid cycle and glyoxylate cycle and for regulation of them.

Physiology level
Detailed: The presence of pyruvate inhibits the expression of genes involved with tricarboxylic acid cycle and glyoxylate cycle and for regulation of these processes. Under these conditions, the genes necessary for conversion of D-threo-isocitrate to glyoxylate, conversion of glyoxalate and acetyl CoA to L-malate and control of isocitrate dehydrogenase phosporylation, are not expressed.
Less detailed: The presence of pyruvate inhibits the expression of genes needful for conversion of D-threo-isocitrate to glyoxylate, conversion of glyoxalate and acetyl CoA to L-malate and control of isocitrate dehydrogenase phosporylation.
