WARF TECHNOLOGIES

A cyanuric acid-responsive biosensor includes a host strain or cell-free system including a first and a second expression cassette; the first expression cassette including, in operable communication, a constitutive promoter and a gene encoding an AtzR cyanuric acid-responsive transcription factor; and the second expression cassette including, in operable communication, a promoter regulated by the cyanuric acid-responsive transcription factor and a gene encoding a reporter protein, wherein the first expression cassette expresses the AtzR cyanuric acid-responsive transcription factor, and, in the presence of cyanuric acid, the AtzR cyanuric acid-responsive transcription factor drives expression of the reporter protein.
