Lambda switch

We also want to study E.Coli-B.Subtilis communication using existing bistable switch in E.Coli.

Many synthetic biology tools came from IGEM. In 2007 Beiijing team, winner of the competition, constructed a push on push off switch derivated from lambda phage.

The toggle switch consists of two mutually repressed repressors, CI and CI434. The corresponding cI and cI434 genes come from the lambda and 434 phages, respectively. The promoters PR and PRM control the transcription of cI434 and cI genes and they are in turn repressed by CI and CI434.

The emmiter is a B.subtillis cell producing cI, protein from lambda phage.

The receiver is an E.Coli cell harboring the toggle switch made by PKU. By making diffusing cI protein, we expect to switch the cell in red. The number of cI sufficient to switch in red is estimated to 150 per cell.
