Constitutive LuxBrick Generator
Lux operon genes (from BBa_K325909) and related RBS are placed under T7 promoter (from BBa_I712074 ). Cells transformed with this part can produce blue luminescence while no exogenous substrate is needed.
When introducing synthetic DNA into a cell, it is desirable that the encoded processes be functionally distinct from host processes. Phage polymerases are a means to control orthogonal transcription and are one of the most used tools in genetic engineering. Specifically, T7 RNA polymerase (RNAP) has been shown to function in a variety of hosts, including most bacteria, plant chloroplasts and mammalian cells. One advantage of T7 promoter is low basal expression, for it tightly inactive in the absence of the polymerase.
Therefore, T7 promoter separates sensing/circuitry functions from pathways/actuation. It is encoded in genetically distinct regions from other circuits, enabling its driving upon the expression of phage T7 polymerases. Luxbrick under T7 promoter is modular to form a interface between luxbrick and other systems. Also, when transformed into BL21 cells, it can be induced with IPTG to reach a high expression level. It is great improvement regarding time saving and cost efficiency.
Usage and Biology
To note that the incubating temperature should be no higher than 30oC, or the heavy Lux complex can easily aggregate. Optimum incubating conditions provided by Peking iGEM 2012: 250 rpm, 22oC, good ventilation after induction(final concentration of IPTG: round 0.5 mM).
BL21 cells harboring T7-lux operon induced with IPTG at 0.5 mM is shown in the photo
