Part:BBa_K3183002

Lactate Dehydrogenase Constitutive Promoter for Lactobacillus sp.

P-slp is a constitutive promoter which can be used in Lactobacillus reuteri 10023C, and may have uses in other Lactobacillus species.

This is a constitutive promoter from the lactate dehydrogenase (ldhL) promoter from Lactobacillus acidophilus¹. It has been subsequently characterised in six strains of Lactobacillus reuteri and Lactococcus lactis spp. cremoris MG1363².
