The differences are in the rates of production of GFP to LuxR. Part J37016 will produce a polycistronic strand of mRNA and the rate of GFP to LuxR translation will depend on which RBS is farthest upstream. The second design; Part J37020 produces two strands of mRNA they are produced by the same promoter, LuxpR but the seuqance surrounding luxpR differs between the two sites so there may be differing rates of transcription between the promoters controlling GFP and luxR. A more reliable method to get the luxR rates of expression would be to tag LuxR with an antigen then run an assay for it. This would however require a very large amount o lab work and the modls do not need luxR translation, simply the transfer function of HSL -> aiiA
