LEE (locus of enterocyte effacement) is a genomic island that encodes a secretion system in enteropathogenic E. coli. This BioBrick is a small part of the island containing the promoter region of the 5th operon, named LEE5.
This region has been shown to be recognized by two nucleoid-associated proteins, H-NS and Ler (‘LEE encoded regulator’). The regulation by these proteins can generate some heterogeneity of transgene expression within E. coli populations as recently shown by Leh and collaborators (Leh et al, mBIO, 2017).
