TITLE

The UV-responsing tandem generators for a wintergreen odor and protective melittin

ABSTRACT

We design a bacteria that produces a wintergreen odor and protective melittin under extensive UV radiation. The biological system includes two generators: the UV-responsing wintergreen odor generator (BBa_K994000) and UV-responsing melittin generator. The melittin generator is composed of two transcriptional devices: RecA (SOS) promoter (BBa_J22106) and synthesized melittin gene with enterokinase digested sequence. The protective generator takes as input extensive UV radiation and produces as output fusion melittin. Melittin can improve immunity and scavenging free radicals to alleviate the harm from electromagnetic radiation, such as UV and blue light.

BACKGROUD

The electromagnetic spectrum, in order of increasing frequency and decreasing wavelength, can be divided, for practical engineering purposes, into radio waves, microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays and gamma rays. The eyes of various organisms sense a relatively small range of frequencies of EMR called the visible spectrum or light. Higher frequencies (shorter wavelengths) correspond to proportionately more energy carried by each photon. For instance, blue light photon carries far more energy than a single photon of the other visible light.
