Permease

Part Description

The bacterium Escherichia coli naturally transports phenylalanine across membranes via PheP (Phenylalanine-specific permease). PheP is a single, integral membrane transporter that uses the proton motive force to antiport L-phenylalanine and L-tyrosine. This transporter's activity under natural expression is known to range between 9 and 17,5.

Usage

PheP, an intrinsic membrane transporter that employs the proton motive force to antiport L-phenylalanine and L-tyrosine, naturally transports phenylalanine across membranes via phenylalanine-specific permease. We employ the component to increase the intracellular concentration of phenylalanine, which improves the permeability of cells to phenylalanine and triggers our circuit to express PAH
