PliaG-trigger RNA-B0015-PCⅠ-switch RNA-GFP-B0015

We used constitutive PliaG to transcribe trigger RNA all the time. And we also used PCⅠ as a constitutive promoter to transcribe switch RNA. If our toehold switch could work normally, GFP could be translated and expressed in the engineered bacteria.


1. Experimental methods

1.1.Construction of the expression vector

The pWB980-DB is digested with enzyme EcoRI and PstI. The target fragment of the promoter, RBS, gene of phytase and terminator of this device are synthesized by the biotechnology company with 6×His tags added. Add EcoRI and PstI restriction sites to both ends of the target fragment respectively. Connect the target fragment to the plasmid vector to construct the expression vector PliaG- trigger RNA-PCⅠ-switch RNA-GFP.

1.2.Construction and screening of recombinant engineered bacteria

Using Bacillus subtilis WB800N as the expression host, the secretion expression vector pWB980-DB was transformed by electro-transformation. Inoculate them on LB solid medium coated with 10 μg/mL kanamycin, and incubate them overnight at 37 °C. Send transformants to biotechnology company for sequencing.


1.3.Characterization experiment

Take 2 bottles of 50 ml LB liquid medium with 10 μg/mL kanamycin. 10 μg/mL kanamycin is added to the one used for the test group while the other used for the control group is not. Test group in which engineered bacteria are successfully transformed, and control group in which pWB980-DB is transformed, are inoculated by the same amount of bacteria. After culturing them for a period of time, use the fluorescence microscope to observe the presence of fluorescence in the test group and the control group.


2. Expected results

Fluorescence can be observed in the test group but not be observed in the negative control group.

Fig.2. Expected results: different expressions of fluorescence between the control group and the test group.

These results are predicted because of the lack of experiment for the COVID-19.
