λ-SWITCH system and the process of OL participation in the SWITCH. (a) SWITCH is composed of OR and OL promoter region and cI, cro genes. OR region consists of OR1, OR2, and OR3. PR completely overlaps OR1 and partially overlaps OR2, whereas PRM completely overlaps OR3 and partially overlaps OR2. (b and c) A schematic picture indicating the transition between unlooping configuration and looping configuration.
