Construction

For confirming pressure-response ability of pressure-inducible promoter, we experimented under 30MPa pressure. We chose TetR promoter(Ptet) as a pressure-inducible promoter. we constructed two plasmids - one is Ptet on pSB6([http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_I739201 BBa_I739201]), the other is ∆p on pSB6.

Ptet stands for promoter repressed by tetR protein. ∆p stands for promoter less. JM109 is used .And JM109 isn’t expression tetR. Therefore, we used Ptet as a positive control.
