Different RBS sequences leads to different levels of expression of the killer protein CcdB which is directly linked to the effects of our programmed cell-death circuit. So we constructed a series of circuits with different RBS sequences so as to detect how RBS of different efficiency can affect the viable cell density at steady state. We build a model to search for a theory to predict growth rule of bacteria with the programmed cell-death circuit. We assume that:(1) without the circuit,changes in viable cell density(N,/ml)follow logistic kinetics;(2)for population-circuit growth, the cell death rate is proportional to the intracellular concentration of the kill protein(E, nM) ;(3)the production rate of E is proportional to AHL concentration(A, nM) ; (4)AHL production rate is proportional to N;(5)degradation of the kill protein and AHL follows first-order kinetics.
