FruR from Escherichia coli

This part is the FruR (Cra) found in Escherichia coli K-12 (ECK0081).

Usage and Biology

FruR is transcriptional repressor-activator for carbon metabolism [1, 2]. It activates transcription of genes involved in Krebs cycle, glyoxylate shunt and gluconeogenesis and represses genes involved in sugar catabolism, such as FruB.

Our team used this transcription factor together with the pFruB promoter (BBa_K2448017) to build a Fructose biosensor (BBa_K2448032). The results show that FruR behaved as predicted under and without induction.
