Part:BBa_K1840002

Zwf promotor from Pseudomonas putida

This basic part is the promotor in front of the gene for zwf (glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase) in Pseudomonas putida. Zwf is concerned with the glucose metabolism in P. putida. The zwf promotor is negatively regulated by the repressor called HexR. It has a binding site for glucose derivative 2-keto-3-deoxy-6-phosphogluconate (KDPG) and binding leads to the release from the promotor. For our project (NTNU Trondheim 2015) we integrated the promotor in front of the mCherry gene. Hence we built a glucose detection device, that expresses mCherry according to the glucose (and therefore KDPG) level in the environment. Note: The promotor edd (BBa_K1840000) is repressed by the same repressor HexR. See biobrick parts BBa_K1840001 and BBa_K1840003 for other promotors on operons regulated by glucose derivatives.
