PlacI-OmpA/OprF

Description

P_lacI-ompA/oprF is part of the IFN-γ sensing system. lacI promoter regulates the constitutive expression of OmpA/OprF.

Biology

When there is no lac repressor, the lacI promoter facilitates the constitutive expression of OmpA/OprF. In the IFN-γ sensing system, binding of IFN-γ to the OmpA/OprF chimeric protein activates the pspA promoter, producing the enzyme required for the synthesis of taurine.

Usage

We ligased ompA/oprF gene and the P_lacI expression vector pSU and transformed it into DH5α to complete construction of the plasmid. Then, the plasmid was purified and transformed into E. coli ompA mutant strain JW0940.
