Cyanobacteriochrome is a group of photoreceptors that are distinct relatives of phytochromes but are found only in cyanobacteria. A putative cyanobacteriochrome, CcaS, is known to chromatically regulate the expression of the phycobilisome linker gene (cpcG2) in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803.We find that CcaS-CcaR-CpcG2 system is merely the only well studied green light sensing system. | Cyanobacteriochrome is a group of photoreceptors that are distinct relatives of phytochromes but are found only in cyanobacteria.

Previous studies have shown the reversible photoconversion between a green-absorbing form (Pg, λmax = 535 nm) and a red-absorbing form (Pr, λmax = 672 nm) of CcaS[1]. Autophosphorylation activity of the histidine kinase domain in the C-terminal region of CcaS is up-regulated by preirradiation with green light. Similarly, phosphotransfer to the cognate response regulator, CcaR, is higher in Pr than in Pg. In cyanobacteria, CcaS phosphorylates CcaR under green light and induces expression of cpcG2, leading to accumulation of CpcG2-phycobilisome as a chromatic acclimation system. The chromophore needed in green light sensing system is phycocyanobilin(PCB),same with red sensing system, which is definitely good news. | Previous studies have shown the reversible photoconversion between a green-absorbing form (Pg, λmax = 535 nm) and a red-absorbing form (Pr, λmax = 672 nm) of CcaS[1].

Previous studies have shown phosphorylated CcaR recognizes and binds to the G-box of CpcG2.[2]Six base pairs in the G-box are identical to -35 site of J23107(A constitutive promoter). So we overlap G-box to BBa_J23107. CcaR will bind to G-box, thus prevents RNA polymerase from binding to the promoter. This modification(BBa_K1023009) allows down-regulation effect under green light. | Previous studies have shown phosphorylated CcaR recognizes and binds to the G-box of CpcG2.[2]Six base pairs in the G-box are identical to -35 site of J23107(A constitutive promoter).

CcaR and CcaS was cloned from cyanobacteria and inserted into constitutive operon we have constructed respectively. Then, the integral of operon, CcaR and CcaS was cloned and inserted in pCDFDuet-1. sgRNA was inserted in opposite direction to avoid leaking expression from upstream terminator. | CcaR and CcaS was cloned from cyanobacteria and inserted into constitutive operon we have constructed respectively.
