  <p>The system  was capable of degrading PAHs into less toxic simple carboxylic acid. Also,  since quinones are intermediates in the pathway, we added quinone sensing and  response repressor (QsrR) to regulate the degradation process. To accelerate  the degradation, we used Voltage Switch (VS), the other great highlight of our  project. We designed a novel transmembrane protein called Voltage Switch (VS),  which is a fusion protein utilizing the voltage sensing domain from potassium  ion channels. Triggered by change in potential across the cell membrane, VS can  separate or bring targeting enzymes into proximity; thus allowing an instant  control of enzymatic reaction. </p>
