Applications of BBa_K302012
The filamentous cell part is repressed by LacI . The LacI repression is removed by induction with IPTG. Without LacI repression a higher proportion of the cells are filamentous. The filamentous cell phenotype is achieved by overexpressing yneA which is an indirect inhibitor of cell division.
| Graph1: |
|
| Graph 1 shows that overexpression of the yneA gene (ΔamyE:pSpac(hy)-oid::yneA) leads to a longer cell length compared with our control Bacillus subtilis 168. |
| See below: Bacillus subtilis 168 cells (left),Bacillus subtilis expressing yneA(centre) and Bacillus subtilis overexpressing yneA(right) |

| Graph 2 shows the percentage of cells at different lengths(μm)uninduced |
| See below: Bacillus subtilis 168 cells (left) and non-induced cells(right) |
|
| Graph3: |
|
| Graph 3 shows the percentage of cells at different lengths(μm)induced at 0.2mM IPTG |
| See below: Bacillus subtilis 168 cells (left) and cells induced at 0.2mM IPTG(right) |
|
| Graph4: |
|
| Graph 4 shows the percentage of cells at different lengths(μm)induced at 1mM IPTG |
| See below: Bacillus subtilis 168 cells (left) and cells induced at 1mM IPTG(right) |
|
Graphs 2,3 and 4 show a greater proportion of cells at a higher concentration of IPTG(1mM IPTG), compared with Bacillus subtilis 168 our control population.
