CELL DEATH

All ccdb parts have been withdrawn from the Registry. Samples of parts containing the ccdB gene cannot be requested. - iGEM HQ

A hybrid promoter controls the production of LuxR and ccdB. The promoter is activated by HSL-LuxR complex and repressed by P22 c2. The LuxR coding region is preceded by a strong RBS and followed by a bad terminator (60% efficiency). This means there is read through into the ccdB coding region which can be translated from a very weak RBS.

If the P22 c2 repressor is absent, there should be a strong enough LuxR background to allow autoactivation if HSL is added. The amound of ccdB should be sublethal as long as there is no significant activation.
