We tried to confirm that fim switch(Tokyo_Tech/J23119) is bidirectically inverted in the presence of FimB (wild-type) by using GFP as a reporter, under 4 different concentrations of arabinose. In the medium with 0 M arabinose, we supplemented the medium with 0.5 % glucose in order to repress the leakage in the PBAD/araC promoter. Fig. 2 shows the histograms of the samples measured by the flow cytometer. In the results of the reporter cell (1), when the Induction of FimB(wild-type) expression increases, the fluorescence intensity decreases. From this fact, we confirmed that the fim switch(Tokyo_Tech/J23119) is inverted from ON to OFF by FimB (wild-type). From the result of the reporter cell (2), when the expression amount of FimB(wild-type) increases, the expression amount of GFP in the reporter cell (2) increases. From this fact, we confirmed that the fim switch(Tokyo_Tech/J23119) is inverted from OFF to ON by FimB(wild-type). From the results of the two reporter cells (1) and (2), we successfully confirmed that FimB (wild-type) inverts the fim switch from ON to OFF and from OFF to ON.

We tried to confirm that'' fim'' switch(Tokyo_Tech/J23119) is unidirectionally inverted in the presence of FimE (wild-type) by using GFP as a reporter, under 2 different concentrations of arabinose. In the medium with 0 M arabinose, we supplemented the medium with 0.5 % glucose in order to repress the leakage in the PBAD/araC promoter. Fig.2 shows the histograms of the samples measured by the flow cytometer. In the results of the reporter cell (1), when the Induction of FimE(wild-type) expression increases, the fluorescence intensity decreases. From this fact, we confirmed that the ''fim'' switch (Tokyo_Tech/J23119) is inverted in the ON-to-OFF direction by FimE (wild-type). From the result of reporter cell (2), when the expression amount of FimB(wild-type) increases, the expression amount of GFP in the reporter cell (2) increases. From this fact, we confirmed that the fim switch(Tokyo_Tech/J23119) is inverted from OFF-to-ON direction by FimE(wild-type) that does not invert the fim switch(wild-type) in the OFF-to-ON direction. From this result, the inversion of fim switch (Tokyo_Tech/J23119) by FimE was not confirmed correctly. In this assay, the FimE protein inverts fim switch in the ON-to-OFF and the OFF-to-ON direction. In other words, the FimE protein works as the FimB protein.

Discussion

We tried to confirm that fim switch(Tokyo_Tech/J23119) is bidirectically inverted in the presence of FimB (wild-type) by using GFP as a reporter, under 4 different concentrations of arabinose. In the medium with 0 M arabinose, we supplemented the medium with 0.5 % glucose in order to repress the leakage in the PBAD/araC promoter. Fig. 2 shows the histograms of the samples measured by the flow cytometer. In the results of the reporter cell (1), when the Induction of FimB(wild-type) expression increases, the fluorescence intensity decreases. From this fact, we confirmed that the fim switch(Tokyo_Tech/J23119) is inverted from ON to OFF by FimB (wild-type). From the result of the reporter cell (2), when the expression amount of FimB(wild-type) increases, the expression amount of GFP in the reporter cell (2) increases. From this fact, we confirmed that the fim switch(Tokyo_Tech/J23119) is inverted from OFF to ON by FimB(wild-type). From the results of the two reporter cells (1) and (2), we successfully confirmed that FimB (wild-type) inverts the fim switch from ON to OFF and from OFF to ON.

We tried to confirm that fim switch(Tokyo_Tech/J23119) is unidirectionally inverted in the presence of FimE (wild-type) by using GFP as a reporter, under 2 different concentrations of arabinose. In the medium with 0 M arabinose, we supplemented the medium with 0.5 % glucose in order to repress the leakage in the PBAD/araC promoter. Fig.2 shows the histograms of the samples measured by the flow cytometer. In the results of the reporter cell (1), when the Induction of FimE(wild-type) expression increases, the fluorescence intensity decreases. From this fact, we confirmed that the fim switch (Tokyo_Tech/J23119) is inverted in the ON-to-OFF direction by FimE (wild-type). From the result of reporter cell (2), when the expression amount of FimB(wild-type) increases, the expression amount of GFP in the reporter cell (2) increases. From this fact, we confirmed that the fim switch(Tokyo_Tech/J23119) is inverted from OFF-to-ON direction by FimE(wild-type) that does not invert the fim switch(wild-type) in the OFF-to-ON direction. From this result, the inversion of fim switch (Tokyo_Tech/J23119) by FimE was not confirmed correctly. In this assay, the FimE protein inverts fim switch in the ON-to-OFF and the OFF-to-ON direction. In other words, the FimE protein works as the FimB protein.
