We have little data on the functionality of this construct since it was used in conjunction with BBa_M36575, which proved inviable. However, what we do know is that a low amount of fluorescence was observed in all cells with the qsc102 plasmid, despite a lack of LasR presence (Graph 1). The promoter is likely leaky, and transcribed the GFP gene following it even without presence of the LasR-PAI1 complex.
