PspA promoter
Description
This is an regulatory element that originated from Escherichia coli K12 strain. This basic part is used to construct our composite part (BBa_K3071014). Our rt-qPCR data show that this promoter is able to initiate the transcription in form of synthetic construct.
Biology
pspA promoter is a sigma-54 (σ-54) regulated activator dependent promoter. In the orginal pspA promoter upstream region, it contains σ-54 consensus sequence 5' of the start contains a GG doublet as -24 and a consensus GG doublet at -12, the high-affinity IHF site (-25 to -60), as well as the UAS sites (UAS I: -89 to -107; UAS II:-111 to -129).
Usage
sigm54-RNA holoenzyme (σ-54 RNAP) forms an inactive transcriptional initiation complex on this promoter, which can be activated in E. coli by the bacterial enhancer-binding protein PspF (BBa_K3071006). PspF functions by binding to the upstream activation sequences (UAS) near the promoter and contacting the promoter-bound σ-54 RNAP via DNA looping stabilized by the binding of integration host factor (IHF). Previous research has demonstrated the property of pspF-dependent and enhancer-specific transcription activation of pspA promoter.
Characterization
The UAS sites of this promoter are replaced by CBS I(BBa_K3071011) and CBSII (BBa_K3071012) in our own synthetic system to construct CBS I & II-regulated pspA promoter (BBa_K3071014).
The rt-qPCR data upon activation by DSF indicate a significant change in gene expression, suggest the related composite part is functional.
