Usage and Biology
Biology
The araBAD promoter of the L-Arabinose operon in Escherichia coli allows tightly controlled, titrable expression of the gene of interest placed downstream the promoter. The promoter is sensitive to small changes in the concentration of arabinose while glucose serves as a repressor.
araC protein acts as the repressor protein which has an affinity to the promoter region in araBAD and suppresses the transcription of the downstream gene.
The araBAD promotes has Pc subunit, O1 subunit, CAP binding subunit, I1 + I2 subunit and pBAD promoter region.
Usage
We are using this promoter for the production of CcdB L83S mutant protein (BBa_K3165014) by induction with arabinose. The Generator of CcdB L83S mutant protein (BBa_K3165048) which has a core mutation at the 83th amino acid residue position uses this promoter as a regulator.
