P. putida KT2440 hpdH promoter truncations. (a) Schematic illustration of the different hpdH promoter truncations that were evaluated for 3-HP-responsive activation of rfp reporter gene expression. The native promoter-reporter gene construct is denoted hpdH-233::rfp. The bioinformatically identified palindromic sequence is illustrated as a dashed box. This sequence was replaced by an AvrII restriction site, CCTAGG, resulting in promoter truncations hpdH-118::rfp and hpdH-106::rfp. (b) Induction levels mediated by the different promoter truncations. The various promoter-reporter gene constructs were analysed in E. coli MG1655 for RFP expression in the absence or presence of 10 mM 3-HP. Error bars represent standard deviations of three biological replicates.
