BpsA stands for the Blue-pigment indigoidine synthetase gene.Itself is derived from Streptomyces lavendulae and is used in the synthesis of indigo. It can only be activated from inative apo-form to the active holo-bpsA by the addition of CoA to its PCP, catalyzed by PPTase, which synthesizes two molecules of glutamine into one molecule of indigo. Corynebacterium glutamicum is usually used to express bpsA for high indigo production.

Strong promoters to improve the bpsA expression

Description

To explore whether more colored fibers could be expressed in K.xylinus. We wanted to express EGFP in K.xylinus using a strong promoter (J23100) as a way to get fluorescent cellulose membranes.

Experiments

We chose to use the Anderson family promoter, first, because it is compatible with K.xylinus, and there is enough references to report that these promoters have been tested in several of bacteria such as G. xylinus 700178, G. hansenii 53582, and K. rhaeticus iGEM.Then we selected three of the strong promoters:J23100,J23104 and J23119.We linked it to bpsA in the hope that fluorescent cellulose could be expressed.
