LuxCDABE (E. coli bioluminescence)
This part encodes the production of the proteins required for bacterial luminescence including luciferase and its subtrates from Vibrio fischeri, codon optimised for E. coli. Naturally, Vibrio fischeri use additional regulatory proteins (encoded by LuxR and LuxI upstream) whose external concentration increases as a function of increasing cell-population density. Bacteria detect the accumulation of a minimal threshold stimulatory concentration of these autoinducers and regulate the expression of LuxCDABE. Consequently, we removed these regulatory proteins to ensure that cell concentration dependent luminescence through quorum sensing is surpassed and our cultures can fluoresce independently.
