p32-I13500: GFP under control of strong constitutive promoter and strong ribosome binding site

This part consists of I13500 (GFP with strong ribosome binding site) under the control of p32, a strong constitutive bacterial promoter. Its intended use is to serve as a promoter-reporter construct in lactic acid bacteria. p32 is used as a promoter in expression vectors functioning within Streptococcus thermophilus

We used p32 as a candidate promoter to drive gene expression in both Streptococcus thermophilus and E. coli. Quantification of p32 using GFP revealed promoter strength on par with strong Anderson promoters (81% as strong as J23100, 115% as strong as J23101).
