They can be divided in three different groups: the constitutive promoters from the [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_J23100 Anderson collection] from the Partsregistry, the constitutive promoters P<sub>''liaG''</sub>, P<sub>''veg''</sub> and P<sub>''lepA''</sub> from ''B. subtilis'', and the inducible promoters P<sub>''liaI''</sub> and P<sub>''xyl''</sub>-''XylR'' from ''B. subtilis''. For the characterization of the different promoters we used the ''lux'' operon [[File:Lux operon.png|100px]] where gene expression leads to the production of luminescence. For this promoter evaluation the reporter vector pSB<sub>''Bs''</sub>3C-''luxABCDE'' was used which was not fully in BioBrickStandard in this time because of one last forbidden restriction site. We also used the reporter gene ''lacZ'' [[File:LacZ.png|50px]] for the promoter evaluation where the promoter activity can be measured by doing β-galactosidase assays. Therefore we used the reporter vector pSB<sub>''Bs''</sub>1C-''lacZ''. See this page for an overview and background information of all evaluated promoters and see the [https://2012.igem.org/Team:LMU-Munich/Data Data] page for more details.</p> | + | |

In this project, eleven Anderson promoters were characterized in ''B. subtilis'' with the ''lux'' operon as a reporter. In this evaluation in ''B. subtilis'' they showed quiet a low activity (see [https://2012.igem.org/Team:LMU-Munich/Data/Anderson Data Anderson promoters] [[File:Lux operon.png|100px|link=https://2012.igem.org/Team:LMU-Munich/Data/Anderson]]).

| |
| - | <p align="justify">P<sub>''liaG''</sub> is a weak, constitutive promoter from ''B. subtilis''. It is responsible for the transcription of the last four genes of the ''liaIHGFSR'' locus and therefore for the production of the components of the LiaRS system, which is important for the detection of cell wall antibiotics [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed?term=Journal%20of%20Bacteriology%2C%20188%20%2814%29%3A%205153%E2%80%935166: (Jordan ''et al.'', 2006)]. P<sub>''liaG''</sub> was evaluated with the ''lux'' operon as reporter (see [https://2012.igem.org/Team:LMU-Munich/Data/Constitutive Data constitutive promoters] [[File:Lux operon.png|100px|link=https://2012.igem.org/Team:LMU-Munich/Data/Constitutive]]) and the reporter ''lacZ'' (see [https://2012.igem.org/Team:LMU-Munich/Data/Constitutive Data constitutive promoters] [[File:LacZ.png|50px|link=https://2012.igem.org/Team:LMU-Munich/Data/Constitutive]]). This promoter showed a much higher activity than the Anderson promoters which was still weak in comparison to the other evaluated ''Bacillus'' promoters. </p>

| |
| - | <p align="justify">P<sub>''veg''</sub> is known to show a strong constitutive activity during the vegetative growth phase and sporulation phase. This promoter is important for the transcription of the veg gene, which plays an important role during sporulation [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed?term=J.%20Biochem.%2C%20133%20%284%29%3A%20475%E2%80%93483: (Fukushima ''et al.'', 2003)]. P<sub>''veg''</sub> was measured by using reporter gene ''lacZ'' (see [https://2012.igem.org/Team:LMU-Munich/Data/Constitutive Data constitutive promoters] [[File:LacZ.png|50px|link=https://2012.igem.org/Team:LMU-Munich/Data/Constitutive]]).

| |
| - | <p align="justify"> P<sub>''lepA''</sub> is constitutive promoter which is important for the transcription of a bicistronic operon. One of the expressed proteins is the protein PlepA [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed?term=Microbiology%2C%20142%3A%201641%E2%80%931649: (Homuth ''et al.'', 1996)]. This protein plays an important role during the translation as it can move the mRNA-tRNA complex one step back in the ribosome which is expected to improve the fidelity of translation [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed?term=Cell%2C%20127%20%284%29%3A%20721%E2%80%93733: (Qin ''et al.'', 2006)]. This promoter was evaluated with the ''lux operon'' as a reporter (see [https://2012.igem.org/Team:LMU-Munich/Data/Constitutive Data constitutive promoters] [[File:Lux operon.png|100px|link=https://2012.igem.org/Team:LMU-Munich/Data/Constitutive]]). The activity of this promoter is between the activity of the strongest promoter P<sub>''veg''</sub> and the weak ''Bacillus'' promoter P<sub>''liaG''</sub>. </p>

| - | <p align="justify">The last group of promoters consists of two inducible promoters of ''B. subtilis'' , P''<sub>liaI</sub>'' and P''<sub>xyl</sub>''-''XylR''. They are useful to decide when to turn on gene expression because these promoters need an inducer to start transcription. They are evaluated with the reporters ''lux'' and ''lacZ''.</p>

| |
| - | <p align="justify">P''<sub>liaI</sub>'' is an inducible promoter from ''B. subtilis'' which is induced by antibiotics that interact with the lipidII cycle, e.g. bacitracin. If the cell senses stress there is a phosphorylation of the two proteins LiaS and LiaR. LiaR binds to the operator of the promoter and induces the transcription. When the promoter is turned on the two proteins LiaI and LiaH are expressed which play an important role in the stress response [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed?term=Journal%20of%20Bacteriology%2C%20188%20%2814%29%3A%205153%E2%80%935166: (Jordan ''et al.'', 2006)]. This promoter is evaluated with the reporter ''lux'' (see [https://2012.igem.org/Team:LMU-Munich/Data/Inducible Data inducible promoters] [[File:Lux operon.png|100px|link=https://2012.igem.org/Team:LMU-Munich/Data/Inducible]]) as well as ''lacZ'' (see [https://2012.igem.org/Team:LMU-Munich/Data/Inducible Data inducible promoters] [[File:LacZ.png|50px|link=https://2012.igem.org/Team:LMU-Munich/Data/Inducible]]). The induction was measured with different concentrations of bacitracin. With induction with different concentrations of bacitracin this promoter covers a large range of activity.</p>

| |
| - | <p align="justify">P<sub>''Xyl''</sub>-''XylR'' is a inducible promoter from ''B. subtilis'' which is induced by xylose. XylR is constitutively expressed, and is the repressor of P<sub>''Xyl''</sub> in absence of the sugar Xylose. In presence of Xylose, XylR leaves the operator and the P<sub>''Xyl''</sub> is active (see e.g. [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2544559 Kreuzer et al.]). For this promoter we have not yet suceeded cloning it in the reporter vector to evaluate the activity. So there is not any data for this promoter yet.</p>
