co·re·pres·sor C0641500 (kō′rĭ-prĕs′ər)n. A substance that combines with and activates a genetic repressor, thus preventing gene transcription and inhibiting protein synthesis.corepressor (ˌkəʊrɪˈprɛsə) na small molecule that combines with, and activates, a repressorTranslationscorepressorenUK
corepressor[¦kō·ri‚pres·ər] (cell and molecular biology) A certain metabolite which, through combination with a repressor apoprotein produced by a regulator gene, can cause the binding of the protein to the operator gene region of a deoxyribonucleic acid chain. corepressorenUK
corepressor [ko″re-pres´ser] a small molecule that combines with a protein aporepressor molecule to form an active substance, which then binds to an operator gene and inhibits the synthesis of an enzyme.co·re·pres·sor (kō'rē-pres'ŏr), A molecule, usually a product of a specific metabolic pathway (for example, nuclear protein), which combines with and activates a repressor produced by a regulator gene. The activated repressor then attaches to an operator gene site and inhibits activity of the structural genes. This homeostatic mechanism negatively regulates enzyme production in repressible enzyme systems.corepressor (kō′rĭ-prĕs′ər)n.
