Previous studies have shown that the rrnB P1 promoter is downregulated by ppGpp [1], which is an alarmone involved in the stringent response in bacteria. Our project involved using the rrnB P1 promoter as a stress-sensor, where it would stop expressing an inhibitor for a second promoter, thus giving a signal.

Applications of BBa_K639002

Previous studies have shown that the rrnB P1 promoter is downregulated by ppGpp [1], which is an alarmone involved in the stringent response in bacteria. Our project involved using the rrnB P1 promoter as a stress-sensor, where it would stop expressing an inhibitor for a second promoter, thus giving a signal.
