PI ,Glucose-activated promoter
This is a promoter designed for the Eschaerichia coli . It includes the CRP-binding site and the RNA polymerase-binding site which have a overlap of several base pairs. Due to the steric hindrance between CRP and RNA polymerase, gene downstream of the promoter will be repressed.In the cells ,low glucose concentration will result in increased activity by adenylate cyclase, rising up the concentration of cAMP in cell. cAMP binds to the CRP, which, in its bound form, is able to bind tightly to the specific DNA site in the promoter and repress the gene downstream. On the contrary, high glucose concentration will result in the expression of downstream genes. Compared to PII (BBa_K861171), the binding of CRP and the promoter is weaker and the promoter is stronger due to the sequence change of CRP binding site to meet the -10 region of the promoter.
