Gensor Unit       
Name: XylR
Description: Molecular biology level
Detailed: In the presence of xylose, XylR positively regulates its own expression and the expression of genes required for Xylose transport and catabolism. Under these conditions, XylR is modified to XylR-xylose, binds its target sites enabling the expression of its regulated genes.
Less detailed: In the presence of xylose, XylR positively regulates the expression of genes needed for xylose transport and catabolic process.

Physiology level
Detailed: The presence of xylose induces the expression of genes involved with xylose transport and catabolic process. Under these conditions the genes necessary for transport of xylose and its conversion to xylulose-5-phosphate, an intermediate of the pentose phosphate pathway; are expressed.
