pFig2c: Mating factor alpha responsive promoter

pFig2c is a mating factor alpha responsive promoter, meaning that it is activated by the presence of mating factor alpha. It is endogenous in S. Cerevisiae cells and is followed by the Fig2c gene. The Fig2c gene is a part of the mating pathway in S. Cerevisiae, it contributes to maintaining cell wall integrity when the cells project ("shmoo") towards each other.

Part Verification

iGEM18_NEFU_China designed the experiment and carried out the verification of the promoter. We induced the activation of pFig2c by the alpha factor we extracted, and the expression of eGFP protein was observed with fluorescence (Fig.1). The negative control (Fig.2, without alpha factor) showed no fluorescence. So this part is successfully verified.
