Design Notes

This promoter was specifically designed to be controlled by complexes constituted of dCas9_VP64 and gRNAs c3_1, c6_1 and c7_1. The design of the promoter is based on promoter CYC_0 (BBa_K1723022). It shows specific mutations that make c3_1, c6_1 and c7_1 sites differ from c3_0, c6_0 and c7_0 sites which are present on CYC_0. Since it has been demonstrated with CYC_0 that inhibition prevails over activation when combining the co-expression of dCas9_VP64 and those gRNAs [1], this promoter can be used as a basic cellular computation tool.

Mutations were carefully designed to keep both TATA boxes[2] of CYC_0 intact.
