(A) Alignment of core promoter regions in PQ5 and PQ2148. The sequence between BsrGI and HpaI is the only difference between the two reporter plasmids pQ5-lux and pQ2148-lux. (B and C) Time courses of cumate-dependent induction of PQ5-luxCDABE and PQ2148-luxCDABE reporter constructs. Cumate concentrations used are indicated on the right. Luciferase activity is given in arbitrary units (RLU [relative luminescence units]). Data are from a single experiment that is representative of three independent biological replicates.
