Urea

Part Name Part Type Part Length Subparts Short Description (max 60 chars) Long Description (what it is, what it does, how to use) Design Notes Source (where does it come from?)
BBa_K116201 Coding 1324 - ureD promoter An urea sensor, which is able to form a complex with urea binding proteins and functions as a promoter. 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) 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.

BBa_K116601 Coding 1935 HtlB (ftsH) coding region from E. coli The HtlB (ftsH) coding region from E. coli. It can be used to degrade many different proteins. E. coli K. 12 MG1655 (1) 1
BBa_K116602 Coding 294 CII coding region from λ phage The CII coding region from λ phage. λ phage (2) 2
BBa_K116603 Regulatory 48 pRE promoter from λ phage The pRE coding region from λ phage. It is able to be induced by CII (BBa_K116602). λ phage (3) 3
BBa_K116609 Coding 90 CIIICd: modified CIII coding region from λ phage CIIICd: A modified version of the CIII coding region from λ phage.

GTAAATTACGTGACGGATGGAAACGCCTTATCGACATACTTAATCAGCCAGGAGTCCCAAAGAATGGATC
AAACACTTATGGCTATCCAGACTAA

The protein domains from the left-most and right-most side of CIII have been removed (the grayed out parts), i.e. amino acid residues #2-13 and #42-49 have been excluded, leaving residues #1 (start codon), #14-41 (the protein domain in the middle) and #55 (stop codon).

HtlB also degrades CIII, creating competitive degradation reactions. We removed the leftmost and right most protein domains since _someone_ et al said that removing these two protein domains will stop HtlB from degrading CIII. Doing this makes it easier to predict and model. λ phage (4) 9
