Description
This composite part constitutively expresses a ToxR-LambdaRep construct. This ToxR construct will dimerize at a high affinity, because of Lambda Rep's dimerizing properties, making the cytoplasmic ToxR dimer an active transcription factor for the ctx Promoter. Thus, If this composite part is combined with a Pctx-GFP reporter there will be a high expression of GFP.
Notes
The biggest design considerations were how to limit the amount of ToxR expressed while still allowing enough ToxR to be produced to see a high expression of GFP. The P_rffGH promoter, the rbs, and the plasmid we put it on (ColE1 origin) all contributed to the optimal expression level of the ToxR construct.
