      <h2><strong>Light + Redox Response:  AppA/PpsR Control System</strong></h2>
 
-
      <p>This is a  repressor/antirepressor system, under high oxygen tension <strong>PpsR</strong> strongly repress GFP expression by binding a conserved  regulatory sequence that avoid RNA polymerase for promoter binding. When oxygen  concentration decreases AppA is activated, and bind PpsR avoiding this DNA  binding activity, thus, GFP expression can begin.</p>

      <p>&nbsp;</p>
 
-
      <p><strong>How does it works?</strong></p>
 
-
      <p>Our genetic system  consists in 2 modules, the first one is formed by <em>appa</em> and <em>ppsr </em>coupled to  B0030 RBS units, J23104 Strong constitutive promoter and B0014 Double  terminator to form the transcription unit. We will evaluate the functioning of  J23104, B0030 and B0014 in a new chassis. The second module consists in <strong>J54103</strong> GFP generator (B0030 RBS + E1010  GFP + B0014 Double terminator) coupled to PpsR repressible promoter.</p>

  This  system is inspired in AppA/PpsR repressor/antirepressor system from <em>Rhodobacter sphaeroides</em>, PpsR protein is  a master repressor of Photosynthesis (PS) genes (Moskvin and Gomelsky 2005).  Inactivation of the <em>ppsR </em>gene is enough to turn on PS gene expression  and formation of the photosynthetic apparatus even at a high oxygen  concentration, whereas <em>ppsR </em>overexpression is sufficient to block PS  development even in the absence of oxygen. PpsR directly represses  transcription of most carotenoid and pigment synthesis genes, photosystems  operons, and genes involved in tetrapyrrole biosynthesis (Gomelsky and Kaplan  1995). <strong>The upstream regions of these  genes contain two PpsR binding sites, TGTcN10gACA.</strong></p>
 
-
<p>A  second protein called AppA, which has no known homologues, plays a role in  controlling gene expression in <em>R. sphaeroides </em>in response to both light  and O2 by acting as an antirepressor of PpsR. Our parts (appa, ppsr and  ppsr-promoter) were synthesized with Genescript, and are codon optimized for <em>R. palustris.</em></p>
