Description
Coding part for the genes NisR and NisK.
NisK is a membrane-associated protein kinase that phosphorylates NisR in response to enviromental signals. NisR is a regulatory protein, regulating PNisI and other promoters.
Together with the genes NisA, NisB, NisC, NisP they are responsible for producing the lantibiotic nisin in Lactococcus lactis.
Notes
Used primers:
forward - 5'-GTTTCTTCGAATTCGCGGCCGCTTCTAGATGTATAAAATTTTAATAGT-3'
reverse - 5'-GTTTCTTCCTGCAGCGGCCGCTACTAGTATTATTACTTTTTTATTTTTA-3'
to PCR NisR and NisK from the genome and add the BioBrick prefix and suffix.
Changed the GTG start codon of NisR into a ATG.
Source
Obtained by PCR on the genome of Lactococcus lactis NZ9700, a nisin producing strain.
