We wanted to work with this promoter and evaluate it as part of our Bacillus BioBrickBox, but the DNA was not available. So we created a new BioBrick and characterized it with the reporter lux operon. EvaluationThe two constitutive promoters PliaG and Pveg were evaluated with the reporter lacZ. Promoter activity leads to the expression of the β-galactosidase which directly correlates to the promoter activity. The β-galactosidase assay of the constitutive Bacillus promoters Pveg and PliaG was repeated three times. Data show one representative result. In the beginning of the growth curve both promoters show only low activity. But then it increases to a maximum before it decreases to the begininng level after about seven hours (Data not shown). Summing up the course of activity of both promoters Pveg and PliaG is very similar based on the growth curve. The highest β-galactosidase activity and therefore the highest activity of the promoter Pveg with a maximum of 65 Miller units can be found during the transition from the logarithmic to the stationary phase. This is about five times higher than the acitivity of the promoter PliaG with a maximum activity of about 12 Miller Units. |

This part was used as part of a promoter and RBS pair (BBa_K143053) as part of the Biofabricator subtilis Imperial iGEM 2008 project. When incorporated into GFP and RFP production constructs(BBa_K143079 and BBa_K143082), the promoter and RBS pair successfully produced a GFP or RFP output. |
