Introduction

The promoter pTrc-riboswitch E comes from the publication of Nakahira et al. (2013). It comprises a double regulation of the downstream gene expression. The first is a transcriptional regulation by the IPTG-inducible TRC promoter. The second regulation is post-transcriptional, as a theophylline-inducible aptamer sequesters the RBS essential for mRNA translation. This promoter has been originally described for control of gene expression in the cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942 .

Testing

The Toulouse team could not test this part for reasons of time, and preferred to focus on the parts characterization that allow the production of molecules responsible for the floral aspect of the violet perfume.
