Part:BBa_K1981202

Autoinducer-2 Response Device B

This composite part consists of the AI-2 quorum sensor-inducible promoter BBa_K1981101, a GFP coding sequence BBa_E0040, a LsrR coding sequence BBa_K091001, two double terminators BBa_B0015. In AI-2 Response Device B, GFP expression is under the control of promoter, plsr. When phospho-AI-2 binds LsrR, expression of GFP ensues. In AI-2 Response Device A, the expression of GFP can directly response to the AI-2 level in the environment, which is an alternative way to reflect the AI-2 concentration in the nature or artificial environment.
