Design Notes
The traR gene is derived from A. Tumefaciens and the codon of this part is optimized for E. coli in terms of codon usage. TraR protein recieves Quorum Sensing signaling molecules ([N-]acyl-homoserine lactones, AHLs), 3OC8 HSL (hereafter C8), leading to the activaion of the trascription.
Source
This part is derived from Agrobacterium.
