Description

This part is an aTc -> alcohol dehydrogenase II inducible system.

Alcohol dehydrogenase II enzyme (adhB gene, BBa_K173017) of Z. mobilis catalyzes the transformation of acetaldehyde into ethanol. This enzyme, as reported in literature, is also able to work in the opposite direction, oxidizing ethanol to acetaldehyde.

The expression of adhB in this part is constitutive in commonly used E. coli strains, but the promoter becomes inducible when the tetR protein is overexpressed, such as in DH5alpha-Z1, W3110-Z1 or MG1655-Z1 strains. In these strains, the promoter can be induced with aTc molecule.
