placUV5:ccdA + pcspA:ccdB

The pcspA (BBa_K4244021) is a constitutive promoter that has a high rate of transcription but contains a long 5′ UTR of 159 bp that, at 37°C, acquires an unstable secondary structure and leads to its degradation. On the other hand, at lower temperatures it forms a stable configuration, which allows translation. In this case, a toxin (ccdB) under the cspA promoter is expressed but counteracted by the antitoxin ccdA (BBa_K4244023), which in turn is expressed by being placed after the constitutive LacUV5 (BBa_M36801) (1). At lower temperature the cspA stabilizes and ccdB overexpresses ccdA, which leads to cell death.


Figure 1: The temperature sensitive survival assay shows that the pcspA system with the toxin-antitoxin (ccdA-ccdB) no colonies are present in the plates incubated at temperatures below 37°C compared to the control, pcspA system with reporter gene.
