pBAV1k-lacI-Trc-beta-agarase YM01-3
The plasmid is combined by the backbone from the pBWB162 plasmid (BBa_K3963003) and cloned by restriction based cloning with the insert beta-agarase YM01-3 (BBa_K2094002). The trc promotor regulates the expression of the insert behind the lacI with lacIq promoter and a kanamycin selection marker.
Design
The cloning was restriction based and without BioBrick prefix and suffix. Therefore the size differs to the registry sequence.
Experiments and results
Plasmid characterization
The plasmid should have a size of 5560 bp but in the gel the plasmid looks smaller about 4 kb (see Fig. 2A).We transformed the plasmid pBAV1k-lacI-Trc-beta-agarase YM01-3 into E. coli DH5ɑ and the typical pit formation can be observed (see Fig. 2B). We send the plasmid to sequencing to control the beta-agarase insert (see Fig. 2C).

Natural transformation in Acinetobacter baylyi ADP1
In Figure 3 it can be seen that after cloning of the pBWB162 plasmid (BBa_K3963000) to the mentioned plasmid pBAV1k-lacI-Trc-beta-agarase YM01-3 the ability to be taken up by Acinetobacter baylyi ADP1, a natural competent bacterial strain, is still present.
beta-agarase YM01-3 activity
We measured the activity of the beta-agarase YM01-3 with the DNS-method which is described in detail on the part page: BBa_K2094002
We measured the activity only in vivo with four replicates.

Sample | Absorbance Value | total amount of reducing sugars(mg/mL) |
---|---|---|
A. baylyi negative control | 0.184∓0.003 | 0.038 |
A. baylyi in vivo positive control | 0.233∓0.015 | 0.077 |
Discussion
The plasmid pBAV1k-lacI-Trc-beta-agarase YM01-3 appears in the gel a bit too small (instead of 5.5 kb at 4 kb). This could be due to the circular structure of the plasmid whereas the ladder is linear DNA. However, the sequencing Data in Figure 2C indicate that in all preparated plasmids the beta-agarase YM01-3 is successfully transformed. Another hint are the pit formations of the E. coli DH5ɑ in Figure 2B. The cloned plasmid was still capable with natural transformation mechanism of A. baylyi ADP1 and the beta-agarase activity could also be measured.
