Design Notes

Epsilon and MazF are under the control of the promoter Pveg (constitutive promotor for B. subtilis) followed by a strong RBS. A theophylline-dependent riboswitch was used to prevent the MazE toxin expression during the cloning steps in presence of theophylline (Topp and Gallivan, 2008). Indeed, with an expressed toxin, it would be impossible to clone the Biobrick in E. coli.SacII and KpnI are the restriction sites placed respectively before and after the riboswitch so that this fragment can easily be replaced depending on the control we want to apply to the bacteria. The construction was created by integrating the EcorI-PstI fragment from BBa_K1937009 in the pSBBS0K-miniplasmid (BBa_K1937001).

The gene Epsilon codes for a toxin countered by the anti-toxin Zeta (Zielenkiewicz and Cegłowski, 2005 ; Mutschler et al., 2011). The gene MazF encodes the anti-toxin for the MazE toxin (Bravo et al., 1987, Zhang et al., 2005, Wang et al., 2013).
