Part:BBa_K5380001:Experience

Arabidopsis Thaliana utilizes NIN-Like Proteins (NLPs), which undergo conformational changes in the presence of Nitrate (Konishi et al., 2013; Chardin et al., 2014). NLPs, having gone aforementioned conformations, will interact as transcription factors by binding to Nitrate Responsive Cis-Elements (NREs), thus increasing expression rates of downstream elements (Konishi et al., 2013; Chardin et al., 2014).

Arabidopsis Thaliana utilizes NIN-Like Proteins (NLPs), which undergo conformational changes in the presence of Nitrate (Konishi et al., 2013; Chardin et al., 2014). NLPs, having gone aforementioned conformations, will interact as transcription factors by binding to Nitrate Responsive Cis-Elements (NREs), thus increasing expression rates of downstream elements (Konishi et al., 2013; Chardin et al., 2014). We used this part in our project as a promoter to up regulate downstream genes in response to the presence of nitrate in our plant system. We were unable to verify its efficiency in our plant, as we were unable to verify the insertion of the part, but its efficacy is well validated in previous publications.
