RIBOSON with plasmid control

RIBOSON with plasmid control

IIT Madras 2016's Characterization

Trigger RNA: A part of RNA molecule, which codes for RFP protein.
Switch RNA: It was designed to repress the translation process by masking the RBS placed upstream of GFP protein coding part. After interacting with the RNA molecules of RFP gene, RIBOSON would allow the RBS to open up to bind to ribosomal machinery for protein synthesis to take place.

We performed our RIBOSON experiment in E. coli BL21(DE3). We transformed our cloned device BBa_K1956019, which has RIBOSONrfp switch under J23100 constitutive promoter, upstream of GFP coding part and RFP generator under lacI+pL promoter.

We grew the cells in LB broth media + 40mM Glucose. After, 16 hrs of growth, we made two types of secondary culture: 1. Cells + LB broth + 40mM Glucose and 2. Cells + LB broth + 1mM IPTG.

Positive Control: Device K1956015, which produces GFP and RFP proteins.
Negative Control: Device K1956034, which produces lacI mRNA molecules.

Below result proves the functioning of RIBOSON device.
