Design Notes

We replace the promoter of sok by PopdH, a promoter able to sense the concentration of citrate, and replace the promoter of hok/mok by PcW, a common weak constitutive promoter in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. When the bacteria are in the mangrovem, the relatively high concentration of citrate is able to activate PopdH and sok can be expressed to antagonize the effect of hok/mok due to the weak function of PcW. When the bacteria are out of the mangroves, PopdH cannot come into effect and the expression of sok is terminated, which enables hok to kill the cells.
When the plasmid with hok/sok system is lost, both of the genes cannot be expressed. However, the half-life of the hok mRNA is longer than the one of the sok antisense RNA, which leads to the result that the hok mRNA still exists when all the sok antisense RNA is degraded. The rest hok mRNA can encode toxin to kill the cell, achieving the function of plasmid anti-loss.
