Improved Monitoring of Low-Level Transcription in Escherichia coli by a β-Galactosidase α-Complementation System

Genetically encoded reporter proteins are important and widely used tools for the identification and capture of a promoter, tracking the dynamic behavior of transcription, and the quantification of promoter activity. The sensitivity of the reporter gene is a critical factor for an ideal reporter sys...
