Anderson-Promoter-Mn-Riboswitch-FAST-Phytochelatine-Terminator

Important: This construct does not include a RBS upstream of the FAST2 sequence. When building on our design please make sure you add it in order to allow for translation

This composite part is a manganese inducible expression system of a phytochelatin (BBa_K1321005) tagged with FAST2 (BBa_K3510000). Expression is controlled by two individual elements: A strong Anderson promoter (BBa_J23102) and a manganese riboswitch (BBa_K902074). With this promoter choice transcription will constitutively happen, but translation initiation is dependent on manganese binding to the riboswitch. Transcriptional termination occurs through the activity of the reliable double terminator (BBa_B0015). This construct allows to assess the efficiency of the riboswitch by itself, without the support of the manganese promoter (contained inBBa_K3510003).

Usage: In our project we coupled this manganese sensing device with a phytochelatin in order to create a bifunctional biosensor, that is not only able to detect manganese, but also directly binds it. With our suggested implementation this would contribute to the increase of water quality. The FAST2 tag allows a quantitative measurement of the fluorescence, which should provide information about the manganese concentration in the sample.
