As shown in Fig. 1B, pBAD promoter serves as input 1. It is activated by arabinose, leading to the expression of SupD, an amber suppressor tRNA. The input 2 is pSal promoter activated by salicylate via binding to NahR. It regulates the expression of a T7 polymerase coding sequence with two amber codons reside in the position 8 and 14 (T7ptag), resulting in premature translational termination. When both T7ptag and SupD tRNA genes are expressed, functional T7 polymerase would be synthesized and consequently actives output, T7 promoter. A green fluorescent protein (GFP) generator regulated by T7 promoter serves as a reporter.

AND gate (BBa_K228258) regulated by theophylline riboswitch P1G1 (BBa_K598005)

This is an AND gate regulated by a theophylline riboswitch. The translational strength of T7ptag is regulated by theophylline concentration.

The AND gate we utilized was designed by Anderson and his colleagues and consequently standardly redesigned by [http://2009.igem.org/Team:PKU_Beijing/Project/AND_Gate_1/Design PKU_Beijing 09 team].

As shown in Fig. 1B, pBAD promoter serves as input 1. It is activated by arabinose, leading to the expression of SupD, an amber suppressor tRNA. The input 2 is pSal promoter activated by salicylate via binding to NahR. It regulates the expression of a T7 polymerase coding sequence with two amber codons reside in the position 8 and 14 (T7ptag), resulting in premature translational termination. When both T7ptag and SupD tRNA genes are expressed, functional T7 polymerase would be synthesized and consequently actives output, T7 promoter. A green fluorescent protein (GFP) generator regulated by T7 promoter serves as a reporter.

By placing a theophylline-responsive RNA controller element upstream of the coding sequence, we obtained an AND gate modulator whose T7ptag gene translation rate varies in response to ligand concentration.
