CP44 _RBS_sfGFP(Bs)_Terminator

Usage and Biology

  • This has only been tested in E. coli thus far.

This is a composite part designed as a report protein sequence for use in Lactococcus lactis. The promoter is a high-range promoter, part BBa_K1033225 from the 2013 Uppsala team, from Peter Ruhdal Jensen and Karin Hammer's library of synthetic promoters for Lactococcus lactis followed by a popular ribosome binding site (Elowitz 1999), a super folded green fluorescent protein codon optimized for Bacillus subtilis (sfGFP(Bs)), part BBa_K1365020 from the 2014 Groningen team, and a popular double-stop terminator. We have further characterized the promoter with the addition of a fluorescent protein. Although it was designed for L. lactis, it has displayed function in Escherichia coli as well. The sfGFP(Bs) has worked well in a variety of bacteria, such as L. lactis, B. subtilis, Escherischia coli and Streptococcus pneumoniae and there are indications that the promoter is functional in a large number of prokaryotic organisms. As such, it is likely that this construct will be functional in a variety of prokaryotic organisms.

We created and tested this construct in Escherichia coli in the pSB1C3 plasmid. It was tested for fluorescence relative to non-transformed E. coli cell (see Figure 1).

This part improves upon CP44 (https://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K1033225) by the addition of a RBS, fluorescent protein, and a terminator, as well as further characterization of the promoter.
