This is a reporter gene that we planned to use in our pH sensor for detecting alkaline surroundings. LacZ gene, present in the ORF of the lac operon in E. coli, encodes for β-Galactosidase enzyme which hydrolyses the β-(1,4) bond between a glucose unit (α or β form) and a galactose unit (only β form). This intracellular enzyme can be used to react with X-Gal as substrate and produce a blue colored dye to act as a visible reporter of lacZ gene expression. Since our aim is to engineer bacteria so that it behaves akin to a Universal pH indicator, lacZ gene is ideal for expression under an alkali-inducible promoter and generate blue color at high pH.

Acid Shock Response (asr) promoter is an acid-inducible promoter sequence, present in the genome of E. coli K12 bacteria.



Fig 1: Position of acid shock response (asr) gene in the genome of E. coli K12. +1 site denotes the Transcriptional Start Site of the asr gene, -10 denotes the TATA box and the “Pho Box” denotes the TF site that is regulated by “Pho operon” in E. coli.


When performed in LPM (Low Phosphate Minimal) media, induction due to asr promoter is almost 100 times at it’s most optimal pH, i.e. 4.8, as compared to pH 7.0 [1].



Fig 2: Northern Blot Analysis of the RNA isolated from E. coli K12 strain induction at two different pH at multiple time intervals, indicates significant production of mRNA transcribed under the P-asr promoter.


We identified a minimal promoter region of 178bp, just before the ORF of the asr gene, that included the observable regulatory regions for acid induction.

This sequence is almost identical to that of BBa_I746916 (Designed by iGEM 2007 Team from Cambridge). However, on a quick BLAST alignment of the two sequences, we observe that there is a mutation at the 15th bp, making it a novel part in the registry.
