Description
It has been shown (see References) that the expression of the Vibrio fischeri lux operon when cloned into E. coli was repressed. This repression was linked to the nucleoid protein H-NS. To investigate this effect we cloned the operon into mutant E.coli cells in which the expression of teh H-NS protein had been modified.


Data

Figure 1 - Peak light output from BBa_K325909 cloned into H-NS mutant JM 230 H-NS -205::tn10. The data points and the error bar are the mean and standard deviation obtained by 3 tim repeats.
Figure 2 - Evolution of light output from BBa_K325909 cloned into H-NS mutant JM 230 H-NS -205::tn10 with time at different Arabinose concentrations. The data points and the error bar are the mean and standard deviation obtained by 3 time repeats. Measurements were taken every 30 minutes.
