Design Notes
The sequence here is preceeded by a coding region for lacIq; the function of this is to repress the promoter in it's natural state within a system. The promoter will then have to be induced, for example, by IPTG for the promoter to function in the 'ON' state. When IPTG is no longer present in the system, the promoter will revert to it's non-induced state of 'OFF'.
