Repressor switch
- Based on the system of iGEM team Slovenia 2012, we adapted the repressor system using TAL A/KRAB. The objective is to reproduced a simplex circuit in a Lactobacillus chassis.
- The main goal of our xenobiotics biosensor is to detect organochorides in different concentration in order to activated a correct answered.
- High concentration: When the concentration is high Gal4 DBD could add to UAS and activated linA, a protein wich degrades pesticides, and at the same time express a repressor protein which inhibits the activity of the correpressor that controled the kill switch system.
- Low concentration: When the concentration decrease, there is not enought UAS activity in the linA system so the repressor activity stops and the peptides that kill the bacteria starts to be produced.
