<b>Summary</b>
 
 
 
This part, which is a fusion protein, serves as <b>an ultra sensitive photoreceptor</b> (which can sense light as weak as moonlight) and will induce a <b>light-dependent repression</b> of genes under specific promoters like [https://parts.igem.org/wiki/index.php?title=Part:BBa_K819002 RecA408 promoter] and [https://parts.igem.org/wiki/index.php?title=Part:BBa_K819017 SulA408 promoter].
 
 
For the photosensor domain of this fusion protein, we chose VVD protein, the smallest photosensor protein known, which forms a rapidly exchanging dimer when excited by blue light. For the physiological function domain, we chose LexA protein, a bacteria transcription inhibitor, whose DNA binding domain rigorously requires help of the dimerization domain for its DNA binding activity. We fused these two separate domains together to form a fusion protein, which we termed our "Luminesensor". Both DNA binding domain and dimerization domain of this luminesensor was mutated at specific sites for better bio-orthogonality and higher on-off ratio.(to see the <b>design</b> page for details, please click [https://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K819005:Designing here])
 
 
We then characterized this luminesensor in different ways and all the results showed that this luminesensor could response to light quite well. (to see the <b>characterization</b> page for details, please click [https://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K819005:Characterization here])
