In the Registry of Parts [http://partsregistry.org/Main_Page] there are four well characterized quorum sensing systems. However, there is a strong activation crosstalk between two of them (Las and Rhl). Therefore, we decided to use the system Cin and Rhl.

This multi-regulated promoter, with an activator and an inhibitor, is called Prm. Its inhibitor is the transcriptional factor cl434 and its activator is the cl factor. The genetic design of the positions of the patterns “X” and “O” can be seen in Figure 4.

This construction using the signal transduction containing cl434 and cl allows creating different systems of associative memory, limited only by the number of quorum sensing systems available. Figure 6 shows how this generic system would work and elucidates how this system could be applied to different functions involving genetic control.
