ThsS
Background
ThsS (BBa_K2507000) and ThsR (BBa_K2507001), both codon-optimized for E. coli, are two basic parts which belong to the two-component system from the marine bacterium Shewanella halifaxensis. ThsS is the membrane-bound sensor kinase (SK) which can sense thiosulfate outside the cell, and ThsR is the DNA-binding response regulator(RR).

Bacterial thiosulfate sensors
Thiosulfate (S2O32-) is a promising biomarker for gut inflammation. Bacterial sensors based on ThsS/R, two-component systems, can be used to diagnose colonic inflammation (colitis) through flow cytometry analysis of colon and fecal samples by responding to thiosulfate.
In a previous study, the sensitivity and specificity of thiosulfate sensors were measured.
