Description
This device is composed of a Plas/cI hybrid promoter and a translational unit of RFP. The Plas/cI hybrid promoter is made up of Plas promoter and cI operator. The promoter can be activated by the LasR-C12HSL complex and repressed by cI repressor. This part can be used in building some logic gates.
The RFP segment is used as a signal to show the result of activation or repression. This kind fluorescent protein is very easy to be detected even by eyes.
Notes
We want to design a part that can be activated by one signal but repressed by another signal.
Source
We hybrid Plas promoter and cI repressor by overlap PCR and add RFP downstream by another step of overlap PCR.
