In this magical world with advanced technology, the classic stories and fables become a little different.
In common scenarios, lacI repressor will create leak expression, causing the expression of Plac even without the presence of lactose. However, according to an article, they claim to have found several kinds of “super repressor” with no leak expression. The article has given the gene sequence of these types of “super repressor”, we have chosen one and use PCR conducted site-specific mutagenesis to engineer the part P0412 in order to better achieve the system.

Experiment
Enzyme cut and synthesis
We use Biobricks to connect parts together. The restriction enzyme cutting sites are Ecor1, Xba1, Spe1 and Pst1.
"The ugly duckling"
In this world, green color is the symbol of purity, beauty and elegance. Our duckling is at first colorless, after it goes through the impediment of lactose, it turns green and becomes the swan.

"Houyi Shoots the Sun"
In this world, suns emit green color and continue rising temperature. Houyi can be controlled by us to shoot the suns. When shooting the sun, Houyi will emit red light passionately.
