Mutagenesis proteins UmuC and UmuD, a part of the SOS system, are involved in the cellular response to DNA damage in E. coli (Reuven et al, 1999).
Usage and Biology
iGEM Leiden 2018 has created a screening system for the detection of new antibiotics. We have tested several stress-activated promoters against a repertoire of known antibiotics (Figure 1) using flow cytometry. We fused promoters to green fluorescent protein and stressed transformed DH5α cells for several hours.
Figure 1. Heatmap with stress-activated promoters
As can be observed in Figure 1 the UmuC promoter is only moderately activated by tetracycline.
