In our platform design, Tes4 is intended to produce butyrate in response to the absence of a specific metabolite. We aim to model the expression of Tes4, which in turn leads to an increase in butyrate levels and its eventual impact on the colonization or growth of our probiotic strain. We want to achieve butyrate production without giving the bacteria too much burden, so we decided to try genome integration of the Tes4 enzyme. To achieve this, we utilized the Lambda Red recombination system to integrate Tes4 and a reporter gene, GFP, into the genome of E. coli MG1655. (Yu et al., 2008) This allows us to track the expression of Tes4 through GFP fluorescence and correlate it with butyrate production and its downstream effects on our probiotic growth and colonization.

The pRed-Aspink expresses the Lambda Red recombinase under the control of an arabinose-inducible promoter. The plasmid also constitutively expresses the chromoprotein, AsPink, which serves as a visual marker to confirm the presence of the plasmid in the host cells (Figure 1).

The Lambda Red recombinase proteins was derived from BNDS-China previous plasmid stock, and Aspink protien was derived from 2023 iGEM distribution kit. We used Golden Gate Assembly to construct pRed-Aspink. PCR and Gel Electrophoresis were performed to verify the success in constructing the fragment and backbone of the full plasmid (Figure 2).

Arabinose inducible Lambda Red system with reporter

This is the first plasmid for genome integration utilizing the Lambda Red recombination system. The other two plasmids within genome integration(BBa_K5127015)(BBa_K5127007). In our platform design, Tes4 is intended to produce butyrate in response to the absence of a specific metabolite. We aim to model the expression of Tes4, which in turn leads to an increase in butyrate levels and its eventual impact on the colonization or growth of our probiotic strain. We want to achieve butyrate production without giving the bacteria too much burden, so we decided to try genome integration of the Tes4 enzyme. To achieve this, we utilized the Lambda Red recombination system to integrate Tes4 and a reporter gene, GFP, into the genome of E. coli MG1655. (Yu et al., 2008) This allows us to track the expression of Tes4 through GFP fluorescence and correlate it with butyrate production and its downstream effects on our probiotic growth and colonization.
