Part:BBa_K3799057
Bidirectional AIP-1 sensor
This is an improvement of the existing part BBa_K1022100.
Usage and Biology
This is a high throughput sensing module that can sense the presence of AIP-I molecules. This part consists of a pBAD promoter, an AIP sensor infrastructure (BBa_I746101), an AIP inducible promoter P2 and a GFP reporter.
In the natural system, the signalling Auto-inducing peptide<b> (termed AIP) is made from AgrD, while AgrB, a transmembrane protein that is responsible for the cyclization. It is then detected by the membrane-located AgrC, which phosphorylates AgrA which then has DNA-binding activity and upregulates transcription of the promoters termed P2 and P3 in the agr locus. There are four known variants of AIP with different molecular structures and cross-inhibitory activity; this BioBrick generates group I AIP. Sequence and Features
