6*ZF21.16-minCMV-2*ZF43.8
This part is one of the response elements of our amplifier, also executing the combiner function. 6*ZF21.16 binding sites and 2*ZF43.8 binding sites (Part:BBa_K2549051) can bind to different zinc finger-based transcription activator ZF21.16-VP64 (Part:BBa_K2549023) and zinc finger-based repressor ZF43.8-KRAB (Part:BBa_K2446041), respectively, with high orthogonality. Minimal CMV (Part:BBa_K2549049) is a promotor providing very low basal expression and high maximal expression after induction. This part is designed to construct our NIMPLY logic gate and test our multiple binding sites amplifier model[1].

Biology
Our characterization
Worked as designed, copy numbers of responsive elements have an impact on tuning output. By increasing the copy number of transcriptional activator responsive elements upstream of the promoter, its ability to activate the transcription increases, despite there were extra responsive elements were placed downstream of the promoter, which provides a platform for transcriptional competition. Please note that Part:BBa_K2549035 has 8 copies of responsive elements downstream of the promoter, but Part:BBa_K2549034 only has 2 copies.
Synthetic promotor operators regulated by artificial zinc finger-based transcription factors
Khalil AS et al have reported several synthetic promotor operators which can interact with artificial zinc finger-based transcription factors with high specificity and high orthogonality[2].
