MerR-pMerT mercury sensing chromoprotein reporter device
This device contains the mercury-inducible promoter pMerT and co-expresses its repressor protein MerR, which specifically binds to mercury. When mercury is present, the pMerT promoter drives the expression of the chromoprotein tsPurple, serving as the reporter signal. This device is specifically designed to detect the presence of mercury in the environment.
However, because we ordered the wrong DNA, we didn't have time to clone this construct, and no experiments were conducted on it.
