This second readout system is composed of 3 genes: TetR under pConst control, LacI under pTet control (playing the role of an inverter) and finally RFP under pLac control. Here, RFP is '''induced''' when TetR '''binds''' to pTet. Lysis cassette can be put instead of RFP in thy system, having as a consequence that the cells where TetR mutants bind to pTet would lyse.

To get this readout system, we cotransformed pSB3K1 Pconst-TetR Ptet-LacI with J61002 Plac-RFP. Unfortunately, the sequence of Ptet in front of LacI got mutated during the assembly process, resulting in only a partial repression of LacI by TetR. Still, our results do show the effects of TetR and LacI on the whole system.
