The operon regulating urea-associated genes had been published many years ago. See J. Bacteriol. 175 (2), 465-473 (1993) | Proteus mirabilis HI4320 |
| BBa_K116202 | Coding | bp | - | ureI | An urea transpoter | The source of urea sensor is the bacteria, Proteus mirabilis, whose genome is still under sequencing (2008-Aug). The operon regulating urea-associated genes had been published many years ago. See J. Bacteriol. 175 (2), 465-473 (1993)
Since the genome of Proteus mirabilis is still undersequencing, we choose Helicobacter pylori as the source of urea transporter. See Nature 397 (6715), 176-180 (1999). These associated geens are also found in several plasmids in certain strains of enterobacteria. |

| BBa_K116500 | Regulatory | 126 | OmpF promoter that is activated or repressesed by OmpR according to osmolarity. | Promoter OmpF is activated by phosphorylated OmpR at low osmolarity, and is repressesed by phosphorylated OmpR at high osmolarity.In Escherichia coli, osmoregulation is mediated in part by the actions of such a two-component system consisting of EnvZ and OmpR. These proteins
act to control the relative levels of the outer membrane porin genes, ompF and ompC. At low osmo larity, OmpF predominates in the outer membrane, while at high osmolarity the OmpF porin is replaced by OmpC.OmpF has a larger pore and a faster ¯ow rate than OmpC. | seq pOmpF | E. coli K12 | K.
