Description
(Chassis B. subtilis, carrier plasmid pBS0K)
Length: 6843 bp
Background:
pNagA is the promoter of the NagA gene, which expresses a N-acetylglucosamine-6-phosphate deacetylasein in Bacillus subtilis.
In bacillus subtilis, this promoter has been reported to induce expression in presence of N-acetylglucosamine 6-phosphate. This NAG molecule is the major component of chitin, a characteristic molecule of fungi.
This BioBrick is a part developed by the Toulouse 2016 iGEM team (http://2016.igem.org/Team:Toulouse_France)
Notes
The part includes the pNagA promoter and its RBS (position 3,595,156 to 3,595,356 of the Bacillus genome). The promoter controls the expression of the RFP fluorescent reporter gene. A NheI restriction site has been placed before the RFP ORF to facilitate promoter swapping.This part is a subcloning of BBa_K1937003 pNagA part in pSBBS0K_mini plasmid (BBa_K1937001).
