This construct is for testing the modified promoter in the presence of the receiver protein, LuxR.
This is a testing construct for the hybrid promoter Lux and cI. In the presence of AI-1 LuxR binds to the promoter region inducing transcription. Thus, the output is GFP.
The OR repressor site may not be strong enough to out-compete the inducer.
This is the LuxR receiver that takes in AI-1 and binds to the LuxR promoter. The coding region is promoted by pBAD.
Derived from the TE terminator of T7 bacteriophage between Genes 1.3 and 1.4 <genbank>V01146</genbank>.
Transcription terminator for the E.coli RNA polymerase.
Suggested by Sri Kosuri and Drew Endy as a high efficiency terminator. The 5' end cutoff was placed immediately after the TAA stop codon and the 3' end cutoff was placed just prior to the RBS of Gene 1.4 (before AAGGAG). Use anywhere transcription should be stopped when the gene of interest is upstream of this terminator.
RBS.3 (medium) -- derivative of BBa_0030
Weak1 RBS based on Ron Weiss thesis. Strength is considered relative to <bb_part>BBa_B0030</bb_part>, <bb_part>BBa_B0031</bb_part>, <bb_part>BBa_B0033</bb_part>.
Varies from -6 to +1 region from original sequence to accomodate BioBricks suffix ("RBS-2" in figure 4-14 of thesis). Contact info for this part: Brian Chow

Transcriptional terminator consisting of a 64 bp stem-loop.
green fluorescent protein derived from jellyfish Aequeora victoria wild-type GFP (SwissProt: P42212
GFP (mut3b) [note that this part does not have a barcode]
Double terminator consisting of BBa_B0010 and BBa_B0012
this part comes from LuxR promoter and cI lambda promoter.
This hybrid promoter is designed to respond to activation by LuxR when it is bound to AHL and to repression by the phage lambda cI repressor. The repression needs to win over activation.
This part is based on the idea of replacing the region of the Lux promoter downstream of the -35 with the OR2 cI half-operator, added LuxR-10 region. Based on what we have found up to now, promoters which are constructed just by inserting OR1/2 downstream of Lux are all very leaky.
This is a composite part of pBAD, B0034, and LuxR. LuxR are is the receiver protein for the quorum sensing molecule AI-1 produce by LuxI.
RBS (Elowitz 1999) -- defines RBS efficiency
Varies from -6 to +1 region from original sequence to accomodate BioBricks suffix. No secondary structures are formed in the given RBS region. Users should check for secondary structures induced in the RBS by upstream and downstream elements in the +50 to -50 region, as such structures will greatly affect the strength of the RBS.

V. fischeri <genbank>AF170104</genbank>
In complex with HSL, LuxR binds to the Lux promoter, activating transcription from Pr <bb_part>BBa_R0062</bb_part>, and repressing transcription from Pl <bb_part>BBa_R0063</bb_part>. The lux cassette of V. fischeri contains a left and a right promoter. The right promoter gives weak constitutive expression of downstream genes.This expression is up-regulated by the action of the Lux activator, LuxR complexed to HSL. Two molecules of LuxR protein form a complex with two molecules the signalling compound homoserine lactone (HSL). This complex binds to a palindromic site on the promoter, increasing the rate of transcription.
2 silent point mutants were introduced in the coding sequence to remove internal XbaI and PstI sites. Mutation sites were chosen to replace codons commonly used in E. coli with codons used at a similar frequency.
