Description

This device is based on gene encoding small RNA (sRNA)called ChiX, which represses ChiP gene synthesis by pairing with a sequence in 5??? untranslated region (UTR) near ribosome binding site (RBS) of chiP mRNA. This leads to degradation of the targeted mRNA by enzymes called RNases. The repression occurs in the absence of the substrates (chitooligosaccharides) stimulating chiP gene transcription. It is fused with Ptet promoter. In this biobrick we introduced mutations in the ChiP and ChiX binding site of ChiX in order to show that basepairing is essential for this regulatory system.

Notes

There are no design considerations.

Source

Both promoter as well as ChiX was obtained from minigenes.
