cinI

Part:BBa_C0076

Designed by: crackdots   Group: Antiquity   (2004-01-27)

autoinducer synthetase This part codes for an autoinducer synthetase which utilizes SAM to make the quorum sensing molecule 3OH,C14:1-HSL.
3OH,C14:1-HSL can bind CinR (Part:BBa_C0077) to make a complex which can activate the Cin promoter Part:BBa_R0077.

Usage and Biology

In Rhizobium leguminosarum, cinR and cinI are forward-pointing, adjacent, and separate transcriptional elements. There is a short (<200bp) intergenic region between cinR and cinI. The cinR/intergenic/cinI structure is conserved for the cinRI locus in Rhizobium etli, and for the cerRI locus in Rhodobacter sphaeroides. The intergenic region is thought to contain a terminator for cinR, a promoter and RBS for cinI, and a dna-binding domain for cinR and its homologs, though a conserved structure has not yet been identified.
