'''Long Description:'''  To develop a functional nitrate sensor, our group is attempting to couple the two-component Nar pathway to an RFP reporter to observe RFP expression in response to different concentrations of nitrateBecause our sensor needs to be able to detect nitrate levels of 10 ppm (the MCL designated by the EPA), our group decided to create a part containing the NarL coding sequenceWe plan on inserting the NarL cds downstream of a RBS and constitutive promoter in order to potentially enhance the signal of RFP expression in response to nitrate activation of the two-component pathwayNitrate detection levels based on data by Edinburgh iGEM team 2009 [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_K216005:Experience]

Long Description: The NarL protein is a cytoplasmic transcription factor that serves as the second component in the two-component Nar pathway found in E. Coli K-12. When NarX (a membrane protein) binds nitrate, it autophosphorylates and then acts as a histidine kinase on the NarL protein. When NarL is phosphorylated, it binds bacterial DNA and acts as a repressor/activator, depending on the particular operon.

Short Description: Coding sequence for the NarL protein, a response regulator in Nar pathway, in accordance with BioBrick assembly 10.

Natural NarL sequence did not contain any EcoRI, PstI, SpeI, or XbaI restriction sites. NarL part is therefore usable by BioBrick Assmebly 10 standards.
