Zinc Sensor
This composite part contains a constitutive promoter, ribosome-binding-site, a gene for ZntR, an E. Coli terminator, and a promoter that is ZntR regulated. In the absence of Zinc ions, the ZntR protein binds to the ZntR promoter binding site. In the presence of zinc ions, ZntR undergoes a conformation, does not attach to the binding site, and allows for transcription of our actuator.
