Part:BBa_K5159027
pIDP2-GFP-LIP2t
This part is constructed to test the strength and sensitivity to ammonium concentration of the inducible promoter pIDP2 in Yarrowia lipolytica. The 1500 bp native pIDP2 is induced by nitrogen starvation, making it a suitable candidate for implementing the stage control strategy by turning on the PUFA synthase expression under this lipid accumulation-favoring condition. However the promoter, especially its inducibility, is not well characterized.
The fluorescence intensity serves as an indicator of the expression level and thus the promoter strength under different inducing conditions. The fluorescence intensity measured was compared with that from pTEFin-GFP-LIP2t expression in Yarrowia lipolytica to obtain a relative value. To ensure the comparability, identical spacers and terminator settings as the pTEF-GFP-LIP2t cassette are applied.
During testing, the average fluorescence was measured, blanked with untransformed groups and normalized with OD600 to minimize influence from other factors and the differences between individual cells transformed.
The reporter gene in the construct can be changed to hrGFP, luciferase, eGFP or other fluorescent proteins to achieve a similar goal, each having its own advantage.
