Part:BBa_K1500010

IPTG--GFP--EmrR

Contains an IPTG-sensitive promoter (BBa_J04500), with RBS.3 (BBa_00032), and reporter GFP (E0040) downstream with an additional RBS and the EmrR mutator gene. Using a fluctuation analysis mutation rate experiment, XL1Blue bacteria transformed with this construct yielded a mutation rate of 3.14E-09 per cell per culture although mutation rate is dependent on growth conditions and can vary depending on experimental setup. This plasmid appears to incur a growth penalty in transformants.

Raw data:

Observed mutation count determined by (http://www.keshavsingh.org/protocols/FALCOR.html) by putting in values. Observed mutation count corrected to actual mutation count by the correction factor (mact=(mobs*(1-z))/(z(ln(z)) with z being the fraction of cultures plated) as only a portion of each parallel culture was plated.

The above graph compares mutation rate of wild-type XL1Blue as well as XL1Blue bacteria containing this BioBrick.
