The goal of pHish and CHIPS is to create a pH sensing and adjusting system for use in the remediation of wastewater produced during microprocessor fabrication. We selected pASR as a pH sensitive genetic element that could be used to drive the expression of base producing genes to create a device that could sense acid and produce base. Before creating such a device, we built this reporter circuit, to characterize the ability of pASR to regulate gene expression in response to acid. We added pASR and a strong RBA (BBa_B0034) to RFP (BBa_E1010), and cloned this into pBS1C3. We then transformed E. coli DH5alpha cells with this construct. After confirming the sequence of the circuit by sequencing, we tested its functionality. To do this, we prepared LB media buffered to a known pH with buffering agents. MES (2-(N-morpholino)ethanesulfonic acid (pka 6.15) was used to prepare pH 6.5 and pH 7.0, Stock HEPES (2-(4-(2-hydroxyethyl)piperazin-1-yl)ethanesulfonic acid (pka 7.48) buffer was used to prepare pH 7.5 and 8.0, and Sock Bicine (pka 8.26) buffer was used to prepare pH 8.5 and 9.0. Media was supplemented with 1x Chloramphenicol before use. Overnight cultures of pASR-RFP transfected cells were diluted to an OD600nm of 0.2 and added to the buffered media, and grown at 37°C with shaking to the indicated times. A 100 µL sample of the cultures, or a blank were loaded onto a 96 well plate. The OD600nm was measured, and then the fluorescence was measured on a microplate fluorescence spectrophotometer Ex 555nm, Em 596 nm.

The function of this part was characterised in the hope of designing a pH-responsive system. We hooked up this asr promomoter to an excellent reporter system (BBa_E0840) and characterised its activity under this new composite biobrick (BBa_K1962014). The system showed some pH-dependent activity.

We also hooked up the asr promoter to biobricks encoding immunity proteins towards colicins. This should give some degree of regulation of transcription of the Im-Ia immunity protein (standard biobrick BBa_K1962001 and composite part BBa_K1962015) and the Im-E3 immunity protein (standard biobrick BBa_K1962004 and composite part BBa_K1962016).
