BBa_K1459001 - PmrA
Transcriptional factor PmrA takes part in iron (III) binding in Salmonella enterica. Upon phosphorylation by PmrB it binds to pmrC promoter and induces expression of chemotaxis protein CheZ.

BBa_K1459002 - C-term of PmrB from Salmonella enterica
PmrB is a transmembrane kinase. After binding iron (III) ion by binding peptide on extracellular loop, it's intracellular domain gains kinase activity and phosphorylates PmrA (BBa_K1459000).
PmrB C-term is a part of two-component system. When fused with some binding tag, PmrB(N-term), PmrA and pmrC-reporter, it is a viable detecting system.

BBa_K1459003 - PmrA-PmrB(LBT) two-component system
PmrA-PmrB two-component system is native to Salmonella enterica and in it's native state it is responsible for chemotaxis. PmrB is a transmembrane protein with iron binding peptide on it's extracellular loop. When PmrB binds iron (III) iron, it's intracellular domain gains kinase activity and phosphorylates PmrA, which subsequently binds to pmrC promoter and induces expression of chemotaxis CheZ protein. In this part iron binding tag on the extracellular loop was exchanged with a lanthanide binding tag (LBT), to allow PmrA-PmrB two-component system to respond to lanthanide ions.
BBa_K1459004 - PmrA-PmrB(LBT) with terminator (BBa_B1006)
PmrA-PmrB two-component system is native to Salmonella enterica and in it's native state it is responsible for chemotaxis. PmrB is a transmembrane protein with iron binding peptide on it's extracellular loop. When PmrB binds iron (III) iron, it's intracellular domain gains kinase activity and phosphorylates PmrA, which subsequently binds to pmrC promoter and induces expression of chemotaxis CheZ protein. In this part iron binding tag on the extracellular loop was exchanged with a lanthanide binding tag (LBT), to allow PmrA-PmrB two-component system to respond to lanthanide ions.

BBa_K1459005 - PmrA-PmrB(N-term)
This is N-terminal part of PmrA-PmrB two-component system native to Salmonella enterica. PmrA-PmrB two-component system is native to Salmonella enterica and in it's native state it is responsible for chemotaxis. PmrB is a transmembrane protein with iron binding peptide on it's extracellular loop. When PmrB binds iron (III) iron, it's intracellular domain gains kinase activity and phosphorylates PmrA, which subsequently binds to pmrC promoter and induces expression of chemotaxis CheZ protein. In this part iron binding tag on the extracellular loop was exchanged with a lanthanide binding tag (LBT), to allow PmrA-PmrB two-component system to respond to lanthanide ions. In this part, PmrB protein is truncated just before iron binding tag, which enables one to put any desired tag between two parts of PmrB, to construct a detecting system based on PmrA-PmrB system.

BBa_K1459006 - pmrC
This is pmrC promoter native to Salmonella enterica. PmrA-PmrB two-component system is native to Salmonella enterica and in it's native state it is responsible for chemotaxis. PmrB is a transmembrane protein with iron binding peptide on it's extracellular loop. When PmrB binds iron (III) iron, it's intracellular domain gains kinase activity and phosphorylates PmrA, which subsequently binds to pmrC promoter and induces expression of chemotaxis CheZ protein. In this part iron binding tag on the extracellular loop was exchanged with a lanthanide binding tag (LBT), to allow PmrA-PmrB two-component system to respond to lanthanide ions.
BBa_K1459008 - pmrC-GFP-terminator
This is pmrC promoter from Salmonella enterica, with subsequent GFP and BBa_B1006 terminator. This part is one part of PmrA-PmrB detecting system. Upon phosphorylation by PmrB, PmrA binds to pmrC and induces expression of GFP.

BBa_K1459010 - PmrB(LBT)
PmrB(LBT) is a engineered PmrB gene, in which iron binding tag was replaced by lanthanide binding tag. PmrA-PmrB two-component system is native to Salmonella enterica and in it's native state it is responsible for chemotaxis. PmrB is a transmembrane protein with iron binding peptide on it's extracellular loop. When PmrB binds iron (III) iron, it's intracellular domain gains kinase activity and phosphorylates PmrA, which subsequently binds to pmrC promoter and induces expression of chemotaxis CheZ protein. In this part iron binding tag on the extracellular loop was exchanged with a lanthanide binding tag (LBT), to allow PmrA-PmrB two-component system to respond to lanthanide ions.

BBa_K1459011 - PmrB(N-term)
PmrA-PmrB two-component system is native to Salmonella enterica and in it's native state it is responsible for chemotaxis. PmrB is a transmembrane protein with iron binding peptide on it's extracellular loop. When PmrB binds iron (III) iron, it's intracellular domain gains kinase activity and phosphorylates PmrA, which subsequently binds to pmrC promoter and induces expression of chemotaxis CheZ protein.
In this part iron binding tag on the extracellular loop was exchanged with a lanthanide binding tag (LBT), to allow PmrA-PmrB two-component system to respond to lanthanide ions. This part was truncated just before the iron binding tag, and PmrB(N-term) is functionally complementar to PmrB(C-term).
