Design of the test-system
To test our designed AlcR-promotors the following system was designed (see Figure). To induce the expression of AlcR a tetracycline induced promotor was used. To monitor the expression of AlcR a His-tag was introduced. In present of acetaldeyhde AlcR binds to the AlcR operon and inhibits the expression of GFP. For a better signal assam gfp was used.
