Phage inducible promoter 1997 +RBS+FspI + term

A sequence designed to provide a kill switch for Lactococcus lactis in the case of an infection by P335 species lactococcal phage Φ31.

Usage and Biology

The promoter in this sequence is A phage-inducible promoter natively located in the middle of the genome of the P335 species lactococcal phage Φ31, containing two tandem transcription sites. Transcription from this promoter is induced after the phage genome is inserted into the bacterial cell, resulting in downstream expression in the initial stages of infection. It has been previously demonstrated that expression is successfully induced from this promoter and only occurs during phage infection. Once the promoter has been activated, the construct will produce FspI, which will kill the L. lactis cell.
