Team:BCCS-Bristol/Wetlab/Part Design/BioBricks/PyeaR+LacZ
The PyeaR promoter was first put into the BioBrick standard by the University of Edinburgh’s
2009 iGEM team. We used this promoter and connected it to a GFP BioBrick to create a BioBrick
that expresses GFP in response to levels of nitrite. We also connected the promoter to the LacZ
gene which codes for β -galactosidase. This was used in a Miller assay, an experiment that is used
to characterise a repressors response to inducer.
The constitutive RFP was expressed via an unmodified BioBrick from the parts registry.
