Build

According to our design, the AraC and ParaBAD genes of the Arabinose induction and regulation system from Escherichia coli and the vivid gene from Streptomyces were synthesized respectively. eSD was added as the ribosome binding site. The synthetic genes were amplified by PCR, and the gene fragments were connected by golden gate according to the circuit diagram design. We selected Native Pc, J23101, and porin as operon gene promoters, and determined the best promoters by synthesizing and detecting the final thallus concentration and the expression yield of the green fluorescent protein.

Although the Native Pc promoter is not the best, we still want to share our work results.

Test

It can be seen from Figures above that porin has a higher VVD transcription level and sfGFP background expression than the J23101 promoter under non-blue light induction, indicating that the porin promoter can better and more precisely initiate and regulate gene expression. FIG. 17 further proves that porin has a larger dynamic response range and better sensitivity when induced by blue light than the native PC promoter and J23101 promoter. Therefore, the PAVVDH-porin promoter was selected as the follow-up research object.
