CcaR, green light response regulator


CcaR is the response regulator of the green light receptor CcaS.
It belongs to the family of OmpR regulator class. CcaR consists of an N-terminal receiver domain that can be
phosphorylated by CcaS and a C-terminal DNA-binding domain that binds directly to the promoter region of cpcG2.

Usage and Biology

when we amplified CcaR from the whole Synechocystis genome via PCR,
the primer had an overhang with a Ribosome Binding Site.
If you want to use it you can clone it behind a promotor of choice.


The promoter region used by J.J. Tabor et. al (2010)
is a 238 bp long sequence upstream of the naitve output product cpcG
unfortunately we could not clone this part into an iGEM vector on time.

To complete information for the green light system here is the sequence for the promoter region:
