Biology

pHybrid 2)-114

pHybrid 2)-114 version is an engineering promoter that is suppressed by the Aca2 repressor, which uses the -35 and -10 regions of J23114.

ccdB

ccdB gene is located on the Escherichia coli F-factor plasmid and is part of the toxin-antitoxin system encoded by the ccd operon, responsible for plasmid maintenance during cell division. ccdB encodes a toxic protein that acts as a DNA gyrase poison. It can bind DNA gyrase to the broken double-stranded DNA, leading to cell death.

ccdA

ccdA is the gene found within the ccd operon, encoding the antidote protein (CcdA) that protects cells from the toxic effects of CcdB. CcdA protein is easily degraded by Lonprotease.The cell loses the ccdA gene due to the loss of the F plasmid, causing the cell to succumb to the toxicity of CcdB.
