Description
This pLas' promoter contains the regulatory region upstream of the LasI gene in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. K091117 includes a LasR binding site as well as a -10 region modified from CATAAA to TATAAA to reflect our pLasXOR promoter design. Activation is expected to occur in the presence of the autoinducer PAI-1 and the LasR protein.
The pLas' promoter serves as a control for the evaluation of the pLasXOR promoter, part BBa_K091118.
Notes
To minimize leaky transcription, a secondary transcriptional start site was excluded from the design.
