Introduction
The rtTA advanced cassette is composed of the promoter HXT7, the gene rtTA which allows the induction of the promoter TetO7 upon binding of doxycycline, and the terminator GYP7. This part is related to the previous part (BBa_K2748001), but we added to it the terminator and the promoter. It must be used with the sequence of TetO7 promoter (BBa_K3930014). The sequence comes from the publication of Garí et al. 1997.
Results
Production of β-caotene (BBa_K3930003)
The part (BBa_K3930002) was linearized and transformed into the S. cerevisiae LycoYeast strain. The production of β-carotene was measured by HPLC. Figure 1 shows the chromatogram of an induced strain with 10 μg.ml-1 of doxycycline.
We concluded that the promoter TetO7 is leaky under these lab conditions.
