The first readout system is composed of TetR with a constitutive promoter, followed by RFP with a pTet promoter. If TetR '''binds''' to pTet, then RFP is ''' repressed'''. The plasmids used here are pSB3K1 pConst-TetR and J61002 Ptet-RFP. This readout system is convenient for fluorescence detection experiments, but it would not be suited for using the lysis cassette as the reporter gene is being repressed upon TetR-pTet interaction. With the lysis device, the interesting cells (where TetR binds to pTet) would survive and we would recover only the useless TetR mutants.
