Description
cI protein coding controlled by pLac and the pLac regulatory region controlled by LacI
Notes
In the presence of lactose or IPTG, an analog of lactose, LacI is unable to correctly bind and inhibit transcription. This allows BBa_C0012 to be used as a inverter or as a detector of lactose or IPTG.
Source
Coding region for the cI repressor based on cI repressor from bacteriophage lambda modified with an LVA tail for rapid degradation of the protein. cI repressor binds to the cI regulator (BBa_R0051).
