=Why is There a Need to Test Different Promoters Responsive to the ChvI Gene in Our System?=

In response to environmental stimuli, due to the amino acids similarity and common mechanisms of different genes, there is a chance of cross-talk among our pH sensor device’s promoter and the genes already present in the E. coli cells (6). To minimize the effects of cross-talk in E. coli, we need to find a gene that does not have a response to any other environmental changes other than an acidic environment.
