Trp repressor , a dimer of 108-residue polypeptide chains. When
tryptophan is plentiful, trp repressor binds two trp equivaents and
associates with the trp operator that is located within the
trp promoter. Trp repressor binding exludes RNA polymerase from the
promotor , preventing transcription of the trp operon. When trp becomes
limiting, repressor is lifted because trp repressor lacking bound trp has a
lowered affinity for the trp promotor.
