In order to do this characterization, we took pictures of different plasmids containing only TetO array (K606026); TetR + YFP (pFX234); TetO + TetR + YFP (K606026 and pFX234). In each case we made a control by non inducing the promoter with arabinose. Cells were grown at 37°C and induced at least 45min.

After observing the full construct's pictures, we can obviously distinguish glowing dots in some cells. They reflect the behavior we expected. Indeed, appearance of dots shows (red arrow) that the receiver (TetO array) actually links tightly to TetR-YFP which is the emitted protein. Not all the dots are highlighted with red arrows but all are fluorescence loci.<br><br>

We transformated ibpA mCherry cells (expressing a RFP in a agregation chaperon protein, with courtesy of Anne-Sophie Coquel, Inserm U1001) with pFX234 YFP:TetR and biobricked TetO Array plasmids to differenciate TetO array foci than agregation.

We could manage to get less agregation if we deal with the arabinose induction.<br>

Characterization: Biobricked YFP:TetR

Parts construction:
Origins of YFP:TetR are from pFX234 of D. Lane (Toulouse 2 University).

Cloning plan of YFP:TetR construction



We characterize it with TetO Array from pDAG479 plasmid of F-X Barre and D. Lane (Kinetics of plasmid segregation, Molecular Microbiology, 2004).

Microscopy of double transformed pDAG470 / Biobricked YFP:TetR in E. Coli:

To characterize this part properly, we took pictures of different strains containing YFP:TetR alone and both TetO array (from pDAG479, D.Lane) and expression YFP:TetR system (BBa_K606027).

Biobricked YFP:TetR only
Biobricked expression YFP:tetR system in E. coli.

Biobricked YFP:TetR and TetO Array

Biobricked expression YFP:tetR system and TetO Array from D. Lane in E. coli.

The TetR-YFP construct which (emitter part) occasionally shows gross aggregated YFP.
After observing the cells carrying both the TetO and YFP:TetR constructs, we can obviously distinguish glowing dots in some cells. They reflect the behavior we expected.
