Design Notes

We take the lambda Prm promoter sequence from the Registry (BBa_I12007), and we added the CRP binding site upstream of that promoter. Following Joung et al. the centered position of the cI operator was fixed to -42, and for the CRP to -93.5. This forced us to do a lot of cut-and-paste of the original Prm sequence to create (presumably) harmless spacers between the operator regions.

Source

The sources of this promoter are, on the one hand, from the bacteriophage lambda, and, on the other hand, from the E. coli. We take the lambda Prm promoter (modified to be activated but not repressed by cI, part ref. BBa_I12007), and the binding site region for CRP from E. coli.
