ArsAction: Arsenite Removal Device (input: PoPs Signal, output: removal device)
The arsenic removal device is designed to prolong cell survival and decrease the rate of cell death due to arsenite toxicity. It confers low level resistance to arsenite. Our device does this by removing arsenite from the comprimsed cell using a two part removal method. The first coding sequence, arsA, is an ATPase that localizes to the membrane of the cell and confers energy to ArsB. ArsB uses this energy to form an ion efflux pump designed to drive arsenite out of the cell. This device is to be used as an actuator and it responds to the universal PoPs signal. The genes used are specific to the arsenic family and can only be used to create a pump that removes the ion form of arsenic (arsenite).
