Overview

Our reception system uses the fec operon in order to transmit the signal received on the outer memebrane via the vesicules into the cytoplasm to induce a response from the reception cells. Once the vesicule has fusioned with the cell, the FecA molecule present on the previous vesicule wall activates the FecR molecule on the inner membrane ; then, the FecI molecule is activated and the pFec promoter is ON and transcription can start. The plasmid of this reception cell was designed to produce a positive reaction once the signal is received so that, even with a very faint signal (very very few FecA molecules inside the vesicules), the reception population will be activated. To this end, we have placed the of FecR and the FecI coding which, once and
