Tandem Promoter pBad-pTet

This tandem promoter was created using the MoClo assembly method. This is a Level 0 MoClo part with flanking sites A on the 5' side and site B on the 3' side of the part. The fusion site letters refer to 4bp fusion sites: A = GGAG; B = TACT; C = AATG; D = AGGT; E = GCTT; F = CGCT; G = TGCC; H = ACTA. This tandem promoter is in pSB1C3.

The promoter is supposed to be induced by anhydrotetracycline (aTc) and arabinose.

In order to test this tandem promoter, we built a basic transcriptional unit with red fluorescent protein reporter. We used the E. coli DH5-alpha Pro strain for this study, which has tetR, lacI, and araC all constitutively expressed in its genome. We induced the E. coli with aTc alone (red circles), arabinose alone (blue circles), and then both aTc and arabinose together (purple circles) to see if we could determine if one promoter was dominant over the other. As shown below, the aTc induction worked while the arabinose failed to induce the expression of RFP.
