Abstract

Methods and systems for autoinduction of gene expression, without the need to add exogenous inducers. A dual genetic element system, which includes a first, high copy number genetic element comprising a first gene of interest that is under the control of an inducible promoter, and a second, low copy number genetic element comprising a gene encoding a transcriptional factor which, upon expression, regulates transcription from the inducible promoter, wherein activation of transcription from the inducible promoter does not require addition of an exogenous inducer.
