GO:0001216DNA-binding transcription activator activityPMID:17892462ECO:0001204 IDA: Inferred from Direct AssayMolecular Function
Figure 5 shows the results of an In vitro transcription assay in which 20 ng of linearized pGS1886 DNA was incubated with RNA polymerase (RNAP) and differing amounts of H-NS and SlyA. H-NS is shown to inhibit transcription of hlyE in Figure 5C through use of a PCR-amplified DNA fragment extending from −474 to +222 that includes the hlyE promoter, seemingly completely inhibiting it at H-NS concentration of 4.0 μM. Figure 5D shows that transcription can be restored by increasing concentrations of SlyA through using the same In vitro transcription assay process and 2.0 μM of H-NS. At about 1.0 μM of SlyA, hlyE appears to be transcribed at similar levels to the control, containing no H-NS. From this it can be concluded SlyA can compete with H-NS for binding sites upstream and downstream of the hlyE transcriptional start site and restore transcription of hlyE.

At about 1.0 μM of SlyA, hlyE appears to be transcribed at similar levels to the control, containing no H-NS. From this it can be concluded that H-NS represses hlyE transcription, and SlyA derepresses hlyE transcription. Therefore, SlyA positively regulates transcription of hlyE. complete

You conclude more than the authors based on Fig. 5. SlyA is shown to bind DNA in other figures, but not here. This is not demonstrating a molecular function.
