The blue columns show the low GFP expression with both PrrA promoter and PrrA/PrrB complete system; in aerobic conditions PrrB autophosphorylates and passes a phosphate group to PrrA, this activated PrrA binds to its promoter region as a transcriptional repressor (Bauer, 2003). All the results show an equivalent result with the images that were obtained by fluorescence microscope. Figure 2A shows that in R. sphaeroides, the AppA/PpsR system promoted the GFP expression, it is possible because reduced PpsR is unable to bind its promoter and AppA is a flavin with a photoreceptor, thus under light, AppA is unable to forma a complex with PpsR and we can see GFP expression in the bacterial population. |
