A Reliable Amplification System

Abstract

The Cambridge 2007 iGEM team developed a Pops amplifier system using phage activators and promoters. The system works by using a Pops input to make an activator protein, as shown in the diagram from their wiki below, which then binds to a promoter and generates a Pops output.

In order to quantify the ratio between Pops in and Pops out, the team built the following constructions, with mRFP and GFP as Pops reporters.
