Part:BBa_K1351037

P2-promoter

Quorum sensing dependant promotor (AIP II). Regulated by phosphorylated AgrA. Contains four AgrA binding sites upstream. This part belongs to the of the AIP-II sensing two component system AgrCA. Upon detection of autoinducing peptide II (AIP-II), AgrC phosphorylates AgrA, which then bindes to distinct binding sites and activates the P2 [this part] and P3 promoters.

This part is used in the 2014 LMU-Munich iGEM project [http://2014.igem.org/Team:LMU-Munich BaKillus].

Luminescence of B. subtilis P_xylA - agrCA / P2-lux and P3-lux was measured in MCSE induced with 0, 0.02, 0.2 % xylose. This plot shows the luminescence readout normalised over OD600 over the course of 6hours. The higher output in xylose induced samples shows the successfull expression of agrCA in B. subtilis.
