Part:BBa_K314203
Designed by: Matthew Coyne, Ingrid Swanson, Jesa Landis, Matthew Harger Group: iGEM10_Washington (2010-10-19)
HSL inducible toxin antitoxin, Tse2 + Tsi2
This part contains the Tse2/Tsi2 locus from Pseudomonas aeruginosa downstream from an HSL inducible promoter(F2620)
Usage and Biology
This composite part produces the toxin Tse2 and its antitoxin Tsi2 when cells are exposed to HSL. Tse2 is a potent cytotoxin. Tsi2 is its antitoxin, which protects the host cell from death by Tse2. Tse2 is targeted for export from the host cell cytoplasm into the cytoplasm of Gram-negative bacteria by the Type VI secretion system, killing the target Gram-negative cells unless they also express Tsi2. Therefore, this part is useful for regulating secretion of Tse2.
Functional Parameters
This part has been tested in pSB3K3. E. coli transformed with this part showed Tse2 production in a broth culture containing HSL at a concentration of 10µM, while no appreciable level of Tse2 was produced in an environment not containing HSL. This was verified by an anti-Tse2 western blot of cellular supernatant of colonies grown up in liquid cultures containing either 10µM HSL or no HSL for a period of approximatively 24 hours.Sequence and Features

Note: This part does not contain the standard biobricks scar between Lux pR and B0034 and between B0034 and Tse2/Tsi2. Instead of the standard BioBrick scar at these position, this part contains the BglBrick scar GGATCT.
