This is a composite of two units, a blue light promoter and a ccdb killing gene. The blue light promoter may turn on the transcription of ccdb.CcdB poisons the gyrase-DNA complex, blocking the passage of polymerases and leading to double-strand breakage of the DNA. Alternatively, in cells that overexpress CcdB, the A subunit of DNA gyrase (GyrA) has been found as an inactive complex with CcdB. The lethal effect of CcdB is most probably due to poisoning of the gyrase-DNA complex.

A blue light regulated ccdb apoptosis gene

This is a composite of two units, a blue light promoter and a ccdb killing gene. The blue light promoter may turn on the transcription of ccdb.CcdB poisons the gyrase-DNA complex, blocking the passage of polymerases and leading to double-strand breakage of the DNA. Alternatively, in cells that overexpress CcdB, the A subunit of DNA gyrase (GyrA) has been found as an inactive complex with CcdB. The lethal effect of CcdB is most probably due to poisoning of the gyrase-DNA complex.
