Pm-B0034-eGFP (XylS)

For detailed information concerning XylS and Pm promoter, please visit 2013 Peking iGEM Biosensor XylS


Structure

XylS is the activator of Pm promoter, which is σ-54 dependent. XylS recognizes two 15-bp repeats (TGCA-N6-GGNTA) in Pm promoter, each featured by box A1/A2 (TGCA) and box B1/B2 (GGNTA), respectively. The arrangement of the two repeats is deposited as shown in Fig 1; the proximal XylS binding site overlaps the -35 box by 2 bp (the sequence for the binding of RNA polymerase)(Fig 1 a, b)

Fig 1 Sequence features of Pm promoter. The orange arrows indicate the two XylS binding sites (proximal and distal), each consisting of conserved A1/A2 and B1/B2 boxes. The -10 and -35 hexamers are in blue. A right-angled arrow indicates the transcription start site (+1).

Construction and data

K1031941 is composed of three elements, the inducible promoter Pm, RBS (Ribosome Binding Site) B0034, and reporter gene eGFP with terminator B0015. (Fig 2)

Fig 2 Construction of reporter circuit. The orange arrow represents Pm promoter for XylS. The green oval stands for RBS B0034. eGFP coding sequence is shown with dark blue, while terminator B0015 is in dark red.


We tested this reporter circuit with different expression intensity of XylS coding sequence and selected the optimal-performed biosensor circuit composed of J23114-XylS and Pm-B0034-eGFP, then this circuit is subjected to ON/OFF test with 78 aromatic compounds, characterizing XylS detecting profile.(Fig 3)

Fig 3 The induction ratios of all 78 typical aromatic compounds in the ON/OFF test following Test Protocol 1. XylS biosensor could respond to 24 out of 78 aromatics with the induction ratio higher than 20, mainly benzoate, salicylic and their derivatives.


Dose-response curve is plotted to further characterize XylS performance with efficiency inducers at different concentration, proving that biosensor circuit Pm/J23114-XylS performs like Hill function.

Fig 4 Dose-response curves of XylS biosensor induced by benzoate and its derivatives. X-axis stands for concentration gradient of inducers at 10µM, 30µM, 100µM, 300µM and 1000µM. Different colors represent different kinds of inducers. Y-axis shows induction ratios. The induction ratio was calculated by dividing the fluorescence intensity of biosensor exposed to object inducers by the basal fluorescence intensity of the biosensor itself.

This part is not such good in our own experiment. However, we changed the reporter from eGFP (BBa_K3599016) to sfGFP (BBa_K3599017), and the induction is rescued. The new part we made is BBa_K3599034.

To characterize the property of the device itself, the original aromatic compond m-Toluic acid (mTa) was used as inducer. According to the experment results provided by [http://2013.igem.org/Team:Peking Peking iGEM2013], the mTa could cause the largest dynamic range and the most sensity of the Pm-eGFP sensor.

The fluorescence of the sensor induced by small molecules

Through the corresponding small molecule sensing experiment, except Dmpr sensor, all our sensors have great induction effects on its corresponding aromatic small molecules. Among which NahR-sfGFP was the best! It is 63 times of the negative control. And here we can see that Xyls-sfGFP is 18 times of the Xyls-eGFP. And what surprises us is that Paax sensor also has a good response effect to small molecules, which has not been detected before.

The fluorescence of the sensor induced by small molecules

The fluorescence of the NahR sensor induced by small molecules

The fluorescence of the sensor induced by PAN

And here is the fluorescence of different sensors induced by PAN.This data shows the same result that NahR-sfGFP responded best.
