Depending on the transcription factor, the transcription of the adjacent gene is either up- or down-regulated. (Ref: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcription_factor). "We show that GerE binds to two sites that span the -35 region of the cotD promoter." (Reference: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10075739) YH, AO promoter-based regulation of transcription
