Applications of BBa_K117000

This Biobrick part is a Lysis gene. It can be ligated to the desired choice of promoter and lysis of the E coli cells could be acheieved.

The NTU@iGEM did just that, and ligated this biobrick part to the pLsrA promoter which detect AI2, an auto-inducer molecule. After the pLsrA detects the AI2, the promoter promotes the transcripton of the lysis gene. Next translation takes place and the lysis protein is formed.

Lysis protein would lyse the cell by the destruction of the cell membrane.

For more detail description of our the Lysis part was used by the NTU@iGEM team, please visit: [http://2008.igem.org/Team:NTU-Singapore NTU@iGEM Team Main Page].
