Plac-RBS-KillerRed (IPTG-inducible)

KillerRed is a red fluorescent protein which produces ROS under green illumination (roughly 500-600 nm, absorption peak at 535 nm). This biobrick allows production of KillerRed under the control of the PLAC promoter (In this construction, actually a T5 phage promoter preceded by two lac operators for strong repression in presence of LacI).With this biobrick the production of KillerRed is IPTG-inducible. We used this part to trigger cell death in response to light illumination for controlling cell density in the Talk'E.coli project of Grenoble-EMSE-LSU 2013. KillerRed is a red fluorescent protein with Absorption in the green portion and emission in the red portion of the visible spectrum:

Note that the information characterising this part was made with BBa_K1141001, which has the same sequence except for an additional Eco RI site between the Promoter and RBS. The vector for BBa_K1141001 is a high copy plasmid like pSB1C3 with ac col1 as duplication origin.
