When arabinose is present, AraC binds that sugar and adopts a configuration that allows it to bind DNA as a dimer to the adjacent half-sites, araI1 and araI2). 
Just upstream of these is a CAP site: in the absence of glucose, CAP binds here and helps activation.
In the absence of arabinose, the araBAD genes are not expressed. This is because when not bound to arabinose, AraC adopts a different conformation and binds DNA in a different way: one monomer still binds the araI1 site, but the other monomer binds a distant half-site called araO2.

Cysteine, tryptophan, and methionine are not common amino acids: together, they constitute approximately 5 percent of the amino acids in a typical protein. Four amino acids—leucine, serine, lysine, and glutamic acid—are the most abundant amino acids, constituting 32 percent of all the residues in a typical protein.
