Design Notes
Design: The part is designed to valid the Tet system in yeast. TetR gene with VP16 is constitutively expressed, activating the downstream reporter gene of TetO and CYC1 TATA region. In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae the ade2, and/or the ade1, mutation in the adenine biosynthetic pathway leads to the accumulation of a cell-limited red pigment. Thus, it could be used as a marker for screening of target phenotype.
