p25, moderate constitutive S. thermophilus promoter

This part consists of p25, a medium constitutive bacterial promoter, contained within pSB1C3. Its intended use is to promote transcription of an inserted gene. p25 was initially identified in a promoter probe survey of the Streptococcus thermophilus genome, alongside weaker promoters p8 and p20.

We used p25 as a candidate promoter to drive gene expression in both Streptococcus thermophilus and E. coli. Quantification of p25 using GFP revealed promoter strength on par with medium Anderson promoters (30.8% as strong as J23100, 43.7% as strong as J23101, 130% as strong as J23106).
