Design Notes
All the essential genes for our T6SS are contained within two putative operons, encoded in opposite directions. The native promoters for both operons are found in the same intergenic region, between fha1 and tssA1. Therefore, we can easily replace the promoter regions for both operons in one step.
Source
In order to create a probiotic application for this system, we first attempt to express it heterologously in non-pathogenic E. Coli. Starting from a Fosmid containing our T6SS, we are using Recombineering to replace the strict native regulation with robust T7 promoters to create strong expression of the T6SS.
