A promoter study was performed to characterize this promoter. The reporter gene GFP was cloned into the replicative plasmid p416tef, downstream of the <i>TEF1</i> promoter.

A promoter study was performed to characterize this promoter. The reporter gene GFP was cloned into the replicative plasmid p416tef, downstream of the <i>TEF1</i> promoter. By using a replicative plasmid instead of chromosomal integration, a higher copy number can be achieved, which will make sure that even weak promoters give a detectable signal. For the glucose conditions, the cells were grown as a preculture in SD -URA + 2 % glucose media overnight, diluted to OD<SUB>600</SUB>=0.3 in the same media and cultivated for 3 hours.

The cells were also grown in SD -URA + 0.5 % acetate to compare the expression levels when acetate was the only carbon source, which is connected to our coculture project.

The longer cultivation time was due to slow growth with acetate as the carbon source. Furthermore, the reason for the longer cultivation time was to make sure that the GFP produced during the preculture in glucose was degraded.

  • Summary: A promoter study to characterize this promoter and compare it against several others in two different conditions.

Characterization

A promoter study was performed to characterize this promoter. The reporter gene GFP was cloned into the replicative plasmid p416tef, downstream of the TEF1 promoter. By using a replicative plasmid instead of chromosomal integration, a higher copy number can be achieved, which will make sure that even weak promoters give a detectable signal. For the glucose conditions, the cells were grown as a preculture in SD -URA + 2 % glucose media overnight, diluted to OD600=0.3 in the same media and cultivated for 3 hours. The expression of GFP was measured in a 96-well plates (NUNC 96) in a BMG Labtech FLUOstar Omega plate reader with triplicate samples using the following setting: 20 flashes per well, excitation/emission wavelength at 485/520 nm and gain set to 800.

The cells were also grown in SD -URA + 0.5 % acetate to compare the expression levels when acetate was the only carbon source, which is connected to our coculture project. For the acetate experiment, the cells were grown as a preculture in SD -URA + 2 % glucose media overnight, washed and diluted to OD600=0.3 in SD -URA + 0.5 % acetate and cultivated for 24 hours before plate reader measurements. The longer cultivation time was due to slow growth with acetate as the carbon source. Furthermore, the reason for the longer cultivation time was to make sure that the GFP produced during the preculture in glucose was degraded.

The experiment was also done with the promoters pAQR1, pGLN1, pPCK1 and pTEF1 in the same way, and the results compared against each other. The raw data from the promoter study was normalized against OD600 of that sample, and the mean value of the negative control (cells with p416tef without GFP) was subtracted. The results are shown in Table 1.

In Figure 1 the results are normalized against the expression level of the pTEF1 promoter.

Each sample was loaded into three different wells in the plate reader, and error bars are shown as confidence intervals with p = 0.05, using student's t-test.

All promoters except pPCK1 show higher expression relative pTEF1 at glucose conditions compared with acetate conditions, which is consistent with previous reports [1]. pPCK1 even has higher expression level than pTEF1, which means that pPCK1 could be preferred for overexpression when acetate is the only carbon source.

Characterization

To visualize the expression level of pTEF1 and choose the appropriate promoter for NLS-Csy4 and function genes, we measure the fluorescence intensity, and the data was divided by OD.

                  Figure 1: Relative fluorescence intensity of two fluorescence proteins under two promoters.

The signal of pGAP-CRISPR(Csy4)-DsRed-tADH1 is low, this is related to our plasmid design. We use double enzyme digestion and T4 ligation to construct pGAP-NLS-yeGFP-28nt-DsRed, the first step is the construction of pGAP-28nt-DsRed, which is called pGAP-R here. The secondary structure of 28nt may influence the expression level of DsRed.

In short, pTEF1 is stronger than pGAP (judged by the fluorescence of GFP and DsRed), so we use pTEF1 to express NLS-Csy4 for high cutting efficiency, and to design the construction of function genes additionally according to our modeling result.
