GlcN6P biosensors mediated transcription activation and repression. (A) The dose-dependent characteristics of the GlcN6P biosensors in strain BS03 (B. subtilis 168ΔgamRΔnagBΔgamA). GlcN was added into the media for improving the intracellular GlcN6P concentration. (B) The response of GlcN6P-responsive repression cascade constructed by the CRISPRi based NOR gate. (C) Verification of the function of the GlcN6P-responsive autonomous dual-control (ADC) system. Promoter Psg2 was used both for the expression of mCherry and dCas9. Flow cytometry scatter plots shows GFP and mCherry fluorescence regulated by the ADC system, and the induction of the GlcN6P biosensor promotes the switch from the GFP+ to the mCherry+ state. The means of GFP and mCherry were calculated and marked in the figure. All data were the average of three independent studies with standard deviations.
