| − | We constructed the lysis reporter CR by adding pH-sensing promoter followed by the amplification genes Switch and mRFP. Fig1 indicates pH (pCadc) inducing reporters after the addition of the lysis gene φ174E in induced and non-induced .The lower OD600 values indicate better lysis of the bacteria. Fig1, as the pH decreases, the OD600 value also decreases,indicating that our constructed strain can respond well to the tumor environment.

Fig2 the fluorescence intensity showed an upward trend with decreasing pH, and Fig (F), the fluorescence intensity under normoxic conditions was very low, while the fluorescence intensity under hypoxic conditions increased significantly after 8h.

| − | The results show that CR undergoes lysis under induced conditions, but the cells still produce fluorescence. It indicates that the fitted set of equations for lysis-growth should be a resonance function.

| − | Next, we tested the constructed CR reporters using CT26 cell cultures. In Fig7, 8, CT26 cells were cultured for 5 consecutive days, and the OD600 values and fluorescence response of the pCadC-controlled CR were tested by measuring the pH after collecting the cell supernatant every 12 hours and using this sample as the medium; In 7 and 8, the pH level of the above cell culture medium sample was measured and used as the medium to test the OD600 value and fluorescence response of the pCadC-controlled CR. Fig7, As the pH decreased, more bacteria were lysed and the OD600 values showed a decreasing trend. Fig8, the fluorescence intensity shows an increasing trend as the pH decreases. The results indicate that CR reporters can respond in cell culture medium.

pCadC-Bxb1-φ174E is a complex component expressing the cleavage gene φ174E, constructed from the pH-sensitive promoter pCadC and the serine integrase Bxb1.
We designed pCadC-Bxb1-φ174E to test the expression efficiency of φ174E under the control of a logic gate coupling the pCadC promoter to Bxb1. We will validate the function of this biobrick by measuring bacterial viability.
