Design Notes

  • medium strong constitutive promoter
  • The virG gene is mutated so it works without an rpoA subunit from Agrobacterium tumefaciens (YC Jung et al., 2004)
  • double terminator (forward) to keep expression of luciferase gene by the constitutive promoter low
  • luciferase gene to show the activity of the vir promoter
