Description
Chitooligosaccharide-Binding Protein (CBP) is a cytoplasmatic protein that regulates the transcriptional activity of the ChiS sensor.
When chitin is present in the external media, CBP binds with GlcNAc oligomers (chitin degradation products) and liberates the sensor for the up-regulation of the chitinolitic degradation cascade in Vibrio fischeri ES114.
This promoter part enables transcriptional characterization of CBP expression.
Notes
Amplified by PCR from V. fischeri ES114.
