===Characterization===
 
 
In order to characterize the pT7 promotor, we used the construct: pT7-RBS-GFP-T7ter. This construct was transformed into BL21 strains expressing the T7 polymerase under IPTG induction.
 
 
'''Fluorescence kinetics'''
 
 
<p>The measurements have been carried out on a spectrophotometer, at 37°C under transient shaking. The experiment lasted 4h, we tested several colonies and several IPTG concentrations. The OD 600nm and the fluorescence of the GFP (exc: 470nm / meas:515 nm) was measured every 5 min, and the ratio of the two was calculated.</p>
 
 
<p>All values were normalized by substracting the fluorescence/OD value of the well with 0 mM IPTG at time 0. The values given are in arbitrary units.</p>

<p>After 2 hrs of induction, we see a clear increase of the fluorescence proportional to the IPTG concentration (that is to say with the quantity of T7 polymerase induced in the cell). After 4 hrs, the expression of GFP under the pT7 is still not saturated</p>

<p>Here, we plot the ratio of induction of the T7 polymerase dependant construct for the different concentrations of IPTG at a given time (4 hrs), taking the well with 0 IPTG at time 0 as the reference.</p>

pT7 SpoVG GFP T7terminator.

T7 RNA polymease controlled GFP expression system for B. subtilis and E. coli

Usage and Biology

This part is the concatenation of the promoter pT7 (I719004) with the RBS SpoVG (K143021), that is design for B. subtilis but that also works in E. coli. This part works very efficiently and have been caracterized in E. coli BL21 cells. The part is in pSB1C3.

See the experiment page of this part or our wiki page[http://2011.igem.org/Team:Paris_Bettencourt/Experiments/T7_diffusion] for additional information
