Signalling

Part:BBa_K750008

Designed by: Sifan Wang,Ruosang Qiu,Xinyi Yao,Qingshu Wu   Group: iGEM12_XMU-China   (2012-09-19)


Quorum sensing system based on LuxI and LuxR to control the expression of parts behind

This part contains BBa_K750001 and BBa_K750006. Activated by arabinose, this device will produce protein LuxI and protein LuxR. The LuxI protein synthesizes a small, diffusible acyl-homoserinelactone (AHL) signaling molecule. The AHL accumulates as the cell density increases, and it will bind with the protein luxR at a high concentration. The LuxR-AHL can activate the promoter LuxPR, and finally lead to expression of protein GFP.
