We attempted to measure the efficiency of the terminator by cloning it into the pSB1A10 plasmid and culturing the bacteria for 24 hours (37 degrees Celsius, 200RPM, 0.1% arabinose, 100 µg/mL ampicillin). The culture was pelleted and the pellet was resuspended in 1mL of 1X PBS. From that, 10 μL were diluted in 990 mL of 1X PBS to yield approximately 5 million cells. For FACS, we used BD FACSCanto™ II. During FACS, a low flow rate was used. We used the following excitation and emission wavelengths: GFP: excitation = 488 nm, emission = 510 nm ; RFP: excitation = 488 nm, emission = 584 nm.

FACS measurement. The terminator was named T7T for our project.

The efficiency is measured through the following formula: Termination efficiency = 1 -{[RFPterm/GFPterm]/[(RFPcontrol/GFPcontrol)mean]}. This measurement showed that the efficiency of the terminator is 74.2%. We also measured the terminator efficiency using the GFP+RFP+ population and the formula: Terminator efficiency = 1 - (Intensity of GFP+RFP+term/Intensity of GFP+RFP+control). This measurement showed that the terminator efficiency of the terminator is 92%.
