Pcar-wRBS-PhlF-T-Pr-wRBS-GFP/pSB1C3

Promoter Pcar [BBa_K861171] is a glucose responsive promoter created by WHU-China in 2012. Pcar promoter region was de novo designed with overlapping of CRP and RNA polymerase binding site. The initiation of transcription by RNA polymerase may be hindered by the binding of CRP, which occurs at the formation of cAMP-CRP complex in the low concentration of glucose. In other words, when the amount of glucose is high enough, Pcar would be turned on after the leaving of CPR due to the low concentration of cAMP, and vice versa.


PhlF repressor system contains the repressor PhlF [BBa_K1725041] and the PhlF repressible promoter [BBa_K1725001] created by Glasgow in 2015. PhlF could repress GFP fluorescence intensity by 83-fold according to the study of Glasgow’s work.


We’ve innovated this year a novel glucose responsive repressor system (Pcar-wRBS-PhlF-T-Pr-sRBS-GFP/pSB1C3 [BBa_K2230012]) by connecting these two system and extend the function of them. Furthermore, based on this new system, we assembled lysis and nuclease genes to the device and created the suicide circuit controlled by the presence of glucose (Pcar-wRBS-PhlF-T-Pr-sRBS-GFP-sRBS-lysis-sRBS-NucA/pSB1C3 [BBa_K2230017]).


Cloning: Pr-wRBS-GFP (BBa_K1725002) with weak RBS (B0032) was assembled with Pcar-RBS-PhlF-T/pSB1C3 (BBa_K2230010)


Function: The expression of GFP driven by PhlF-repressed promoter (named Pr here) was dose-dependently regulated by PhlF repressor and reduced upon an increasing concentrations of glucose. In other words, the intensity of GFP increased when glucose gradually ran out.
