PlldR-GFP
Introduction
Composite part containing the PlldR promoter (BBa_K1847008) fused to GFP (BBa_E0840) as a reporter gene. Both parts were already characterized in depth by other teams. We used this part in Salmonella Typhimurium.

Characterization
We wanted to know if the lactate-inducible lldR promoter is still functional in Salmonella minicells, as minicells only exhibit a limited lifespan and transcriptional and translational activity. To check this, we conducted a lactate assay with 2 replications using newly purified minicells following our optimized minicell purification protocol. The GFP expression is increasing with rising lactate-concentration, thus we concluded that minicells have enough expression capacity available for GFP expression and that the lldR promoter is functional (Fig. 1).
