Our Biobrick has been designed to enable the detection of NO using the norV gene promoter, cloned from E.coli K12 TOP10 cells.
In the presence of NOx it will promote the downstream genes in the plasmid, producing a protein in response to the environmental
stimulus.

- Summary: We cloned and characterised the norV promoter, and sent it to the registry as a biobrick. Our biobrick can be found here Part:BBa_K2116002, and includes a spacer that is not found in this version.
Usage and Biology
Promoter norV (PnorV) is the native promoter controlling the nitric oxide reduction operon (norRVW) in E. Coli. [1] It's transcriptional regulator, NorR, can bind to nitric oxide and activate gene expression.
Characterisation of the Promoter
We cloned PnorV upstream of superfolder GFP for characterisation Part:BBa_K2116088 This construct was expressed on a medium copy plasmid (ori:p15A). Since E.coli natively produces NorR, we relied on this to activate the promoter. Below is the dose response curve we obtained under the following experimental conditions, using a plate reader:
- Overnight growth and experiment in minimal M9 medium, with 25μg/μL chloramphenicol.
- Plating at an OD600 of 0.05, in M9, with 25μg/μL chloramphenicol.
- Induction at OD6000.5.
- Settings for GFP measurement: excitation-488nm, emission- 530nm.
- Samples were always in three technical replicates, and the fluorescence measurements were normalized to OD600.
In order to show that the native NorR is essential for activating PnorV, we used a [http://cgsc.biology.yale.edu/KeioList.php Keio] norR knock out strain (ΔnorR) and compared it to it's parent wild type strain (WT). It was shown that PnorV can be activated by DETA/NO in the parent strain, but not in the norR KO strain.
Materials
We used DETA/NO to as a nitric oxide source. It has a half life of roughly 20h, and releases NO at a relatively constant rate [2].
