Ara-Inducible Cha6605_4344g2 Expression System

A GAF domain of the cyanobacteriochrome (CBCR) Cha6605_4344 with an intein/chitin-binding domain fused to the C-terminus for purification. Expression regulated by a pBAD promoter. As with most CBCRs, NpF requires a phycocyanobilin co-factor, and must therefore be expressed in a system with heme oxygenase (BBa_I15008) and PcyA (BBa_I15009). Cells appear to be off-yellow under normal light, and may be difficult to distinguish from a negative control.

Characterization

The ara-inducible system was cloned into pSB1C3 and co-transformed into DH5-alpha cells along with a plasmid containing heme oxygenase and PcyA. After growing the cells to OD=0.9-1 in Terrific Broth, the cultures were induced with increasing levels of arabinose to study the vibrancy of the cells once harvested (Fig.1).
