Site directed mutagenesis of the BBa_R0062 pLuxR wild type promoter=

Our goal was to achieve mutations in the luxbox of the pLuxR BBa_R0062 promoter to shift the dose response curve of the promoter depending on the OHHL (3-oxo-hexanoyl-l-homoserine-l-lactone) concentration.
We did site directed mutagenisis of specific sites of the luxbox according to the results of the literature ()
