Interaction at a distance between lambda repressors disrupts gene activation.

A Hochschild1, M Ptashne.   

Abstract

The lambda repressor is an activator as well as a repressor of transcription. The activation function is blocked by interaction with another lambda repressor molecule bound upstream on the same DNA molecule. This example of negative control at a distance involves formation of a DNA loop.
