PcaU inducible promoter with high sensitivity

Inducible promoter for protocatechuic acid (PCA). The PcaU transcription factor represses its own transcription as well as a target transcript when PCA is not present by binding to the operator region. When PCA is present, PcaU releases the region and transcription of the target transcript occurs.


Usage and Biology

PcaU has been inserted into the pGLO plasmid, in which it expresses GFP when induced by PCA. Fluorescent intensity scales hyperbolically with PCA concentration. Above 10mM concentration, PCA was toxic to BL21 E. coli containing the PcaU reporter.
