Description
The narG promoter is located at the beginning the nar operon and is naturally activated during nitrogen respiration of E. Coli by the Fnr protein to signal reduction of nitrate to nitrite. In the presence of nitrate, Fnr protein binds to a region upstream of narGp to act as an activator.
Notes
Design includes BioBrick suffixes and prefixes, and the promoter sequence itself was checked for restriction digest sites to ensure compliance with Assembly Standard 10.
Source
Part was synthesized based on the promoter of the nar operon naturally present in E. coli.
