Part:BBa_K145302

luxI generator controlled by key/lock

This device can generate luxI. luxI is an enzym that can catalyse the production of HSL. When no key is present, there will be no lacI and therefore luxI will be produced. However, when key is present, lacI will be produced and this wil repress the production of luxI.

Functional Parameters: Austin_UTexas

BBa_K145302 parameters

Burden Imposed by this Part:

Burden Value: 1.3 ± 2.1%

Burden is the percent reduction in the growth rate of E. coli cells transformed with a plasmid containing this BioBrick (± values are 95% confidence limits). This BioBrick did not exhibit a burden that was significantly greater than zero (i.e., it appears to have little to no impact on growth). Therefore, users can depend on this part to remain stable for many bacterial cell divisions and in large culture volumes. Refer to any one of the BBa_K3174002 - BBa_K3174007 pages for more information on the methods, an explanation of the sources of burden, and other conclusions from a large-scale measurement project conducted by the 2019 Austin_UTexas team.

This functional parameter was added by the 2020 Austin_UTexas team.
