Description
pLacI drives LuxR gene, producing LuxR protein for activation of pLux promoter. pLux drives LuxI gene, producing enzyme to make 3OC6, required for LuxR activation. The circuit has amplification by the LuxI enzyme and positive feedback. pLux also drives GFP gene, followed by RFP gene. The LuxI gene is modified with restriction sites for AscI and AsiSI, for introduction of frameshift mutations.
Notes
Introduction of restriction sites for AscI and AsiSI required changing several amino acids and retaining the reading frame.
