Cloning

The already linear part was ligated to the pSB1C3 vector, and then transformated to be verified with Colony PCR. The RFP in the iGEM Registry contained Hind3, unlike the RFP in this part. For this reason, the part was cut with the EcoR1 and Hind3 restriction enzymes. The gel runs of the part were examined. The part was tagged as G-Block 7 and sample 7-6 yielded the accurate base pair length.

Functional Assay

The bacteria that were transformated with G-Block 7 were cultured in 5 ml and incubated for 13 hours. After this incubation, the cultures were incubated at respective temperatures for 4 hours and were given 50uM of iPTG twice with 4 hours periouds. There were a total 5 different temperatures that the cultures were incubated in: 4, 25, 37, 42 and 50 C. The proteins in the cultures were then isolated and the protein concentrations were measured. Data on RFP concentration were acquired at 584 nm of emission and 607 nm of excitation. The acquired values were divided to the total amount of protein to acquire the following ratio.

Tabled Data of the Protein Analysis

Medium Temperature	iPTG Presence +/-	Total Amount of Protein	RFP Fluorometric Measurement	RFP/Total
4	+	14.09	22.32	1.584
4	-	11.349	10.36	0.912
25	+	17.87	14.35	0.802
25	-	11.054	4,313	0,390
37	+	16.808	40.2	2.391
37	-	15.216	17.36	1.140
41	+	7.637	44.83	5.870
41	-	5.557	11.13	2.002
50	+	5.463	60.06	10.993
50	-	7.997	20.95	2.619

The graph shows the variance in density concentrations of RFP, caused as a result of the functioning of the iPTG Inducible Promoters in different temperatures. The functioning of the promoters increased cumulatively with increased temperatures.

We followed the protocol that had described in this part to repeat some experiment which will show its characterization. We use the restrict enzyme EcoRI and HindIII to cut the plasmids that was extracted from the bacteria solution (Fig.1), and we didn’t have the right DNA stripes which showed in their electrophoresis results. To confirm the plasmid’ s sequence, we also sent the plasmid for sequencing, but we have not received an available result file for its quality score(QS) and continuous reading length (CRL) are under 10. Our bacteria solution cultured in different temperature with or without ITPG had not shown a positive result, and we can’t see any difference of them(Fig.2).

Fig.1 The enzyme cutting product was identified by 1% agarose gel electrophoresis.
