Design Notes
On the Staphylococcal agr operon, there two promoters: P2 and P3, which are read in two different directions. Here, we have the entire promoter region. Genes may be ligated on the C terminus of this part to get the agr promoter functionality.
Source
This part was PCR'd from Staphylococcus epidermidis (ATCC 12228) genomic DNA.
