Tight Repression 37C Temperature-Sensitive mf-lon ssra

Tight Repression 37C Temperature-Sensitive mf-lon ssra. Components: J23100 ts-CI+ R0051 mf-Lon ssrA.

Mechanics

Strong promoter J23100 constitutively expresses the CI repressor protein, which binds the downstream CI promoter. However, this circuit contains temperature sensitive CI, which denatures at 37C and consequently loses its ability to bind the CI promoter. Therefore, increasing the temperature to 37C alleviates the repression of the CI promoter and allows for the expression of mf-Lon protease. An ssra degradation tag follows the mf-Lon in this circuit, increasing mf-Lon turnover.

Role in IFFL

In an IFFL (incoherent feed-forward loop), an input activates a reporter and its inhibitor. This circuit produces the mf-Lon protease, which can degrade and thus inhibit promoters like mScarlet-I. Thus, for use in an IFFL, this circuit must be combined with a reporter-containing circuit. A degradation tag, such as a pdt tag, should follow the reporter coding sequence.
