Lux cassette + LacI promoter + cI434 + ter
Promoter (luxR & HSL regulated -- lux pR)
Promoter activated by LuxR in concert with HSL The lux cassette of V. fischeri contains a left and a right promoter. The right promoter gives weak constitutive expression of downstream genes.This expression is up-regulated by the action of the LuxR activator protein complexed with the autoinducer, 3-oxo-hexanoyl-HSL. Two molecules of LuxR protein form a complex with two molecules of the signalling compound homoserine lactone (HSL). This complex binds to a palindromic site on the promoter, increasing the rate of transcription.
This promoter is based on the Vibrio fischeri quorum sensing gene promoters. Two genes LuxI and LuxR and transcribed in opposite directions as shown below. The original sequence from which the parts <bb_part>BBa_R0062</bb_part> and <bb_part>BBa_R0063</bb_part> were derived is shown in the picture below. <img src="<bb_file>Image1.gif</bb_file>" width="614" height="362">

Promoter (lacI regulated, lambda pL hybrid)
represillator of Elowitz and Leibler (2000)
Inverting regulatory region controlled by LacI (<bb_part>BBa_C0010</bb_part>, <bb_part>BBa_C0011</bb_part>, etc.) The PLlac 0-1 promoter is a hybrid regulatory region consisting of the promoter P(L) of phage lambda with the cI binding sites replaced with lacO1. The hybrid design allows for strong promotion that can nevertheless be tightly repressed by LacI, the Lac inhibitor (i.e. repressor) (<bb_part>BBa_C0010</bb_part>) ([LUTZ97]). The activity of the promoter can be regulated over a >600-fold range by IPTG in E.Coli DH5-alpha-Z1 (same paper reference).
hybrid promoter design to create strong promoter that is, at the same time, highly repressible. note that the upstream operator installed in this hybrid is slightly different than the one in the original source (Lutz and Bujard, 1997). the most upstream operator region is slightly truncated in the represillator version, so that both operators in the hybrid are the same sequence. see references for details. also, the sequence has been truncated after the transcriptional start site. LacI binds to this regulator. This part is incompatible with species containing active LacI coding regions. Lactose and IPTG disable the operation of LacI and increase transcription. This part is incompatible with environments containing lactose or lactose analogs.

Protein generator converting TIPS to the protein cI from 434. Used as the input section for Quad Part Inverter Q01520.
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.
Transcriptional terminator consisting of a 64 bp stem-loop.
Medium RBS based on Ron Weiss thesis. Strength considered relative to <bb_part>BBa_B0030</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 ("RBS-1" in figure 4-14 of 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.

The 434 cI repressor protein coding sequence is a 710 base-pair sequence with the standard RBS-compatible BioBrick prefix and the standard BioBrick suffix sections on its ends. It binds to the 434 regulatory sequence, BBa_R0052. The sequence contains a LVA tag for faster degredation and has no RBS.
