Description
The ferredoxin, which is an iron-sulfur protein, is constitutively produced at high levels. Ferredoxin sequesters iron, so an iron sensor in the form of an iron-inducible promoter is put downstream of the ferredoxin gene. It may be possible to calculate the amount of ferredoxin produced by controlling the dissolved iron concentration and measuring the output of a reporter put downstream of the iron sensor. Comparing this result to a positive control of the reporter output of cultures with only the iron sensor would enable the calculation (part BBa_I716002).
Notes
Optimized codons, G/C content, and repeats to 10 base pairs for S. elongatus.
