Part:BBa_K352017
pCooM RBS RFP Double terminator CooA coupled with placI+RBS
This part is formed by combination of pCooM Promoter coupled with RBS+RFP+Double terminator and CooA coupled with placI+RBS.
This component is used to measure high levels of carbon monoxide in the environment. Construction of this device was performed by utilizing strong CO sensitive promoter which is pCooM promoter from Rhodospirillum rubrum. This device is only active when there is CooA transcriptional activator and Carbon monoxide gas in the environment. When there is CO in the environment, the device produces red fluorescent protein in response.
Culturing CO Sensor E.coli with CO induction
Usage and Biology
We have used 300 mL flasks with 80 mL LB culture. We have applied 80 Ml Carbon monoxide to some. The results were successful. Cultures induced with carbon monoxide successfully expressed red fluorescent protein.
