This construct is built by biobricks provided by iGEM official.
This biosnesor is bound to detect C-4 AHL molecules produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
The sequences are confirmed without restriction enzyme sites inside and there fore sequence design should be fine.
rhlR repressor/activator from P. aeruginosa PA3477 (no LVA)
Pseudomonas aeruginosa rhlAB promoter
Promoter activated by RhlR in concert with C4-HSL. C4-HSL is produced by RhlI, and acts as a quorum-sensing autoinducer. This is the natural sequence taken from Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Crosstalk: this promoter is also activated at a low level by LasR with its associated HSL.
The -10 and -35 sites are labeled as identified in [Pearson97]. The part begins with the RhlR binding site, and (rather arbitrarily) ends with the first transcribed base (+1).
RBS.1 (strong) -- modified from R. Weiss
Strong RBS based on Ron Weiss thesis. Strength is considered relative to <bb_part>BBa_B0031</bb_part>, <bb_part>BBa_B0032</bb_part>, <bb_part>BBa_B0033</bb_part>.
Varies from -6 to +1 region from original sequence to accomodate BioBricks suffix ("orig" in figure 4-14 of Ron Weiss thesis). 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.

cI repressor from E. coli phage lambda (+LVA)
Elowitz, M. B. Transport, Assembly, and Dynamics in Systems of Interacting Proteins. Thesis, Princeton Univ., Princeton (1999).
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).

It has been modified to include a rapid degradation LAA tail, and includes the BioBrick standard assembly head and tail restriction sites. The RBS has been removed. The stop codon has been changed from TAA to a double stop codon TAATAA.

The cI regulated promoter is based on the pR promtoer from bacteriohage lambda. The promoter has two two DNA binding sites for lambda cI repressor <bb_part>BBa_C0051</bb_part>. cI binding results in repression of transcription. The specific sequence used here is based on the cI repressible promoter used in the Elowitz repressilator (and references therein).
In order to address concerns about the promoter transcribing in the reverse direction, we have removed the -35 and -10 signals responsible for the promoter activity in the reverse direction. (More details needed here! DE, 2/24/03) Incompatible with host expressing cI repressor.
mCherry from Roger Y. Tsien's lab, altered to be BioBrick compatible
mRFP (DsRed) derived, altered to be a biobrick by removing a PstI site and adding in the ends.
Made a point mutation to eliminate a PstI site in the middle and then added BioBrick ends using PCR. Sequenced using primers that bind to the pSB1A2 plasmid on either side of the brick.
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.
