Bacterial Expression System for the Detection of Erythromycin based on FRET

Expression system based on FRET biosensor for the detection of erythromycin. This system is suitable for cloning in pSB1C3 as the plasmid backbome, which propagates the BioBrick part and is widely used by other iGEM teams.

Usage and Biology

The usage of genetic constructs that are designed to produce a protein, either inside or outside a cell, is important in several ways, such as increasing the expression rate. With this BioBrick, we are generating a bacterial expression platform that is capable of generating several copies of our protein of interest, EryK, coupled with the FRET system for the detection of erythromycin.

Our expression platform is composed of the following elements: an inducible promoter, which is regulated in response to specific stimuli; a ribosome-binding site to bind the ribosome for the initiation of translation; and a transcription terminator that mediates the release of the transcript RNA from the translational complex.
