Motivation

  • To mimic Lotka-Volterra, the predator construct is split into a 'sensing part' and 'killing part'.
  • The sensing part of the predator produces AHL lactonase as a function of the AHL produced by the prey
  • In this part the AiiA gene has been replaced with the reporter gene GFP to allow the measurement of the production of GFP as a function of AHL.
  • The resulting transfer curve will be used to extract parameters Vmax and Kd to characterize the part and for use in our modelling.
  • This part will form the receiver of the final predator construct
