Arsenic sensitive plasmid is a circuit which is sensitive to As(III) and express smURFP as a feedback so that we can indirectly educe As(III) concentration through detecting the fluorescent intensity of smURFP. It's composed of 4 small parts, including promoter J23104, RBS and ArsR gene(BBa_K2644010), promoter ArsR along with RBS(also named ArsR operator, BBa_K2644004), smURFP gene(BBa_K2644007) and HO-I gene(BBa_K2328062).

Usage

Arsenic sensitive plasmid is a circuit which is sensitive to As(III) and express smURFP as a feedback so that we can indirectly educe As(III) concentration through detecting the fluorescent intensity of smURFP. It's composed of 4 small parts, including promoter J23104, RBS and ArsR gene(BBa_K2644010), promoter ArsR along with RBS(also named ArsR operator, BBa_K2644004), smURFP+HO-I part(BBa_K2644001).


Biology

In order to detect trivalent arsenic ions(As(III))，we choose a kind of arsenic binding repressor protein--ArsR. ArsR binds the promoter in the absence of arsenite and acts as a repressor, and dissociates from the promoter in the presence of arsenite. Connecting with constitutive promoter J23104, the ArsR gene can work and bind the ArsR promoter in front of smURFP gene stably. When arsenite comes, the ArsR promoter will no longer be repressed and the smURFP+HO-I part will produce FPs which is mostly proportional to As(III) concentration. Fluorescence intensity of 660nm (ultra-red light) can be measured through the laser confocal microscopy.
