CadA promoter which has the binding site for CzrA protein is combined with ArsR binding site to create this AND gate Cadmium sensor.
This Cadmium sensor has binding sites for ArsR and CzrA metal sensors. By placing them together, our device works as an AND gate and senses Cadmium when both proteins bind to Cadmium.
When Cadmium is not present both proteins bind to their relevant sites on the promoter and represses the expression of downstream genes. When Cadmium present in the environment, it binds to these repressors which then fall of from where they are bound to on the promoter. Hence the promoter becomes free to express the downstream genes as an indication of Cadmium.
This combinatorial approach enables us to filter out sensing other metals. ArsR and CzrA can bind to different metals, however when both are used as an ANd gate, they will only recognize Cadmium.

We wanted to sense Cadmium accurately and used a combinatorial approach to achieve our goal.

CadA promoter with CzrA binding site

It is taken from ''B. subtilis'' ''cadA'' promoter.
In ''B. subtilis'' CadA system works as an efflux system to take the metals out in the cell. It is normally repressed by CzrA repressor protein. When certain metals get inside the cell, they can bind to CzrA and derepress the promoter expressing CadA. Hence metals are taken out by the efflux system.
By taking the promoter of CadA system, we created a generic metal sensor. Hence when it is combined with coding sequences of other genes, it will regulate the expression of these genes upon sensing metals.

Promoterless ArsR binding site

''B. subtilis''
This part purely holds the binding site for ArsR protein which can be released when bound to different metals. Hence this part can be combined with any promoter to sense metals that can bind to ArsR protein. When added in front of a promoter with another metal sensor's protein's binding site, it can form an AND gate to sensitively detect specific metals.

ogr activator from P2 phage
2007-09-10T11:00:00Z
2015-08-31T04:08:04Z
plasmid DNA supplied by Prof. Richard Calendar, University of California.
The ogr activator taken from P2 phage acts on a class of inducible promoters (parts I746360 to I746365), inducing their activity to varying degrees.
The part sequence does already contain a ribosome binding site (B0034)!
