Pcyd: A promoter open in aerobic conditions

This is an aerobically initiated promoter that initiates transcription of subsequent sequences under microaerobic and aerobic conditions. The mechanism is based on the fact that Fnr takes over the promoter sequence under anaerobic conditions, competes with RNA polymerase for binding sites, and thus prevents the transcription of subsequent sequences. However, under microaerobic and aerobic conditions, Fnr protein does not bind to the sequence, and thus can continue the subsequent transcription.

Usage and Biology

This is a promoter sequence that initiates transcription of subsequent gene sequences under aerobic conditions and is part of the operon structure of cydAB. Under anaerobic conditions, the Fnr protein will bind to a part of the promoter sequence, impeding RNA polymerase binding, playing a competitive role, and the downstream gene sequence cannot be transcribed. However, under microoxygen conditions, AcrA protein binds to this promoter and recruits RNA polymerase to bind to the promoter, thereby normally initiating downstream transcription. Under aerobic conditions, RNA polymerase normally binds to the promoter. So this is a promoter sequence that can be transcribed normally under aerobic conditions.

Functional Parameters

To verify the activity of promoter Pcyd, we transferred pUC57(+)-Pcyd-GFP into E.coil DH5α. After coating the transformed strains, the plates were placed in special anaerobic boxes and cultured at 37 ° C. After 12 hours of culture, the fluorescence intensity of GFP was qualitatively observed by irradiation under normal light and UV lamp. The results are shown below (Figure 1).

In order to further verify that this difference was caused by oxygen, the plates that had been incubated in the anaerobic box were also incubated at room temperature. After incubating at 37℃ for 3 hours, all the plates showed the green fluorescent color of GFP. (Figure 2).

However, after consulting the data, we found that GFP could emit light only under aerobic conditions. Therefore, the start-up conditions of this element still need to be further verified.
