Description
The Pseudomonas quinolone signal (PQS) is imperative in modulating mechanisms that enable Pseudomonas aeruginosa to survive at times of stress. P. aeruginosa is the main pathogen responsible for severe deterioration in the Cystic Fibrosis lungs. The production of this signal relies on the pqsABCDE operon. The transcriptional factor PqsR (BBa_K1315000) positively regulates this operon.

Notes
The sequence did not have any restriction sites to remove so it was immediately PCRed out of the genome and had the registry prefix and suffix added to it. It was then ligated into the pSB1C3 vector.
