Design Notes

The pRha promoter is two promoters in one. In its native E. coli, the 5' end of the promoter serves to express the rhaR and rhaS control genes. The 3' end of the promoter is expresses the rhaBAD rhamnose metabolism genes.

The rhamnose response: RhaR transcription factor is activated by rhamnose to upregulate rhaR and rhaS. RhaS in turn up-regulates the rhaBAD operon. These functions are dependent on the binding of the catabolite receptor protein (CRP) cAMP complex to the promoter. Additionally, function of RhaS is improved in the presence of rhamnose (Egan & Schleif, 1993).

The glucose response: The promoter is subject to repression via global catabolite repression.
