pLac-RBS-LuxR allows for the control of the production of LuxR proteins by controlling the presence of IPTG. RFP-RBS-pOmpC-pLux-RB/s-GFP (K199069) is proposed to have XOR gate properties.
his design is projected to exhibit XOR logic. The inputs are high osmolarity and 3OC6.
LuxR gene that is controlled by the pLac promoter. Can be induced with IPTG.
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.

green fluorescent protein derived from jellyfish Aequeora victoria wild-type GFP (SwissProt: P42212
GFP (mut3b) [note that this part does not have a barcode]
Produces LuxR protein which can sense 3OC6HSL in the media and activate transcription from R0062, the right hand Lux promoter
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.

Reverse RBS (RBSrev) -- corresponds to BBa_B0030
Repeats in oligos caused unusual products during cloning
PCR was used to isolate the promoter and add BioBrick ends to it.
pOmpC is the promoter upstream of the OmpC gene which is native to E. coli. pOmpC is induced by high osmolarity, such as LB media and high sucrose concentration.
RFP reverse was PCR amplified from mRFP (BBaE1010).
The mRFP coding sequence in the reverse orientation. This part requires a reverse RBS and reverse promoter to be expressed
RFP reverse was PCR amplified from mRFP (BBaE1010) using the following primers: 5'-atgcactagtatggcttcctccgaagacgt "Spe mRFP F" 5'-gcattctagattaagcaccggtggagtgac "Xba mRFP R"
This is pLux oriented in an opposite direction to typical BioBrick inserts.
Had trouble getting this part via PCR. That was probably due to an error in the primers.
RBS (Elowitz 1999) -- defines RBS efficiency
Varies from -6 to +1 region from original sequence to accomodate BioBricks suffix. 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.

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.
V. fischeri <genbank>AF170104</genbank>
In complex with HSL, LuxR binds to the Lux promoter, activating transcription from Pr <bb_part>BBa_R0062</bb_part>, and repressing transcription from Pl <bb_part>BBa_R0063</bb_part>. 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 Lux activator, LuxR complexed to HSL. Two molecules of LuxR protein form a complex with two molecules the signalling compound homoserine lactone (HSL). This complex binds to a palindromic site on the promoter, increasing the rate of transcription.
2 silent point mutants were introduced in the coding sequence to remove internal XbaI and PstI sites. Mutation sites were chosen to replace codons commonly used in E. coli with codons used at a similar frequency.
