Probabilities of lexA_dinF promoter occupancy calculated only on the basis of two of the LexA binding sites located within the regulatory region of the TU. Panel A: The blue dots represent probability of promoter occupancy calculated considering only occupation of the -50.5 LexA binding site. The red dots represent probability of promoter occupancy calculated considering only occupation of the -9 site. The green dots represent probabilities calculated relying on the possibility of occupancy of either site by LexA. (RNAP concentration: 1E-08). Panel B: The blue and green dots represent exactly the same calculations as in panel A; the red dots represent the probability of lexA_dinF promoter occupancy calculated assuming that the -9 site mutates to produce a sequence whose binding to LexA is weaker by one order of magnitude than the wild type.
