Memory Units
cI Autoinducing Loops
The autoinducing loop driven by cI will function as our first memory unit. We aimed to find a combination of RBS, transcription factor and degradation tag that enables us to toggle between the two steady states in a robust way. To estimate the rate in which single cells are activated by too much leakage of cI protein we measured the fluorescence in uninduced cells with a flow cytometer. To measure the activation we used a construct with the PRM promoter producing GFP.
