This

part is a combination of B0034-YF1-B0034-FixJ(BBa_K592016), FixK2
 +
promoter(BBa_K592006), and amilGFP(BBa_K592010) in that order. We also add a
 +
constitutive promoter(BBa_J23119) so that teams can use this part to test the
 +
blue light system easily. When the cells are kept in dark, they will express
 +
amilGFP, a yellow chromoprotein. This protein causes the cells to have a yellow
 +
color. When the cells are exposed to blue light, the amilGFP won't be expressed
 +
and the yellow color can't be seen.

This part is mainly composed of

Cph8(BBa_K592018), ho1(BBa_I15008) and PcyA(BBa_I15009), which form the red
 +
light sensing system in E.coli. Cph8 is a synthetic red light sensor,
 +
consisting of Cph1, a natural red light sensor, and EnvZ, a histidine kinase.
 +
The most important part of the light sensor is PCB(phycocyanobilin), without
 +
which the red light sensor cannot work. However, PCB is not generated by E.coli
 +
naturally. So we need to introduce ho1 and PcyA into E.coli. Actually we've
 +
also submitted the PCB generation system(BBa_K1797008). These two enzymes can
 +
change heme into PCB. Here we combine the three main parts- Cph8, ho1 and PcyA-
 +
together to facilitate parts users.

Composite Parts



Part:BBa_K1797000

Blue Light Sensing System with GFP Reporter

Tsinghua BBa K1797000.png

This part is a combination of B0034-YF1-B0034-FixJ(BBa_K592016), FixK2 promoter(BBa_K592006), and amilGFP(BBa_K592010) in that order. We also add a constitutive promoter(BBa_J23119) so that teams can use this part to test the blue light system easily. When the cells are kept in dark, they will express amilGFP, a yellow chromoprotein. This protein causes the cells to have a yellow color. When the cells are exposed to blue light, the amilGFP won't be expressed and the yellow color can't be seen.



Part:BBa_K1797001

Red Light Sensing System

Tsinghua BBa K1797001.png

This part is mainly composed of Cph8(BBa_K592018), ho1(BBa_I15008) and PcyA(BBa_I15009), which form the red light sensing system in E.coli. Cph8 is a synthetic red light sensor, consisting of Cph1, a natural red light sensor, and EnvZ, a histidine kinase. The most important part of the light sensor is PCB(phycocyanobilin), without which the red light sensor cannot work. However, PCB is not generated by E.coli naturally. So we need to introduce ho1 and PcyA into E.coli. Actually we've also submitted the PCB generation system(BBa_K1797008). These two enzymes can change heme into PCB. Here we combine the three main parts- Cph8, ho1 and PcyA- together to facilitate parts users.

Specifically, it contains an entire blue-light system, including a light sensor YF1 and a response regulator FixJ, and two Fixk2 promoter regulated reporters. We used this part to test the efficacy and efficiency of the blue-light system in E. coli. If the bacteria carrying this plasmid is provided with blue light, two reporters cannot be synthesized. On the contrary, if it is kept in dark, then the bacteria colony will display a mixture color from RFP and GFP.
