Design Notes

As the three enzymes are suitable to produce the substrate for all of our polyketide synthases(PKS), we decided to co-express them in one plasmid—the low copy plasmid pSB4A5 and make it the chassis for our expression of PKSs.

we use T7 promoter and terminator to stay the same with our plasmid pSB1C3 carrying the genes encoding DEBS1 PKS so that they will be co-expressed under the same condition. RBS is placed between every two genes in order to ensure the transcription of every gene. Since the sfp gene knocked into the prp operon was frame shifted, we worried about whether it works as expected. Therefore,we constructed two chassis, of which one carries sfp(chassis 1) while another(chassis 2) doesn’t, and we will verify the activity of the sfp by transforming them into the E.coli BL21(DE3) separately with pSB1C3 carrying DEBS1 at the same time and see if there will be any difference between these two strain of E.coli BL21(DE3) under the same condition.
