sfGFP-LVAtag expression casette under the control of J23110 promoter

This part is an sfGFP-LVAtag (BBa_K2675006) expression cassette under the control of the constitutive promoter BBa_J23110.

Usage and Biology

In this composite part sfGFP-LVAtag (BBa_K2675006) was equipped by a custom made RBS (BBa_K2675017) and placed under the control of the constitutive promoter (BBa_J23110).

The pictures of E. coli cells harbouring this part show a very strong sfGFP-LVAtag expression. In contrast, no sfGFP-LVAtag is observed in the absence of the promoter and the RBS (BBa_K2675081).

We used this part as a positive control of sfGFP-LVAtag expression and as a negative control of promoter regulation.

Characterization by Evry Paris-Saclay 2019

The LVA degradation tag (AANDENYALVA), that equips the superfolder GFP (sfGFP) in this expression cassette, is a ssrA tag that accelerates protein degradation in Escherichia coli at 37°C [1]. It is used in synthetic biology to rapidly degrade reporter genes and thus finely observe the synthetic gene networks dynamics.

We have characterized this part by measuring the fluorescence of E. coli cells harboring it. We followed over time 3 different widely used laboratory E. coli strains: the wild-type MG1655 strain, the cloning strain DH5α and the protein overexpression strain BL21(DE3). The fluorescence values were normalised by OD600nm and the results are presented in figures 2 and 4. The data and error bars are the mean and standard deviation of at least three measurements (three biological replicates).

The row data, provided in excel format, were generated as OD600nm and arbitrary fluorescence units. Using the calibration curves presented in Figure 3 (and as an excel file too), we converted the arbitrary units into Molecules of Equivalent FLuorescein (MEFL) / particle (Figure 4).

Figure 4. In vivo characterisation of Green Fluorescent Protein expression by different E. coli cells harbouring BBa_K1330003, BBa_K2675066 or this part BBa_K2675056.


As negative control, we used BBa_K1330003, a part containing just the BBa_J23110 promoter in pSB1C3 backbone.

As positive control, we used BBa_K2675066, a composite part containing the sfGFP non equipped with a degradation tag (BBa_K2675005) placed under the control of the constitutive promoter (BBa_J23110) too.


The cell measurements results presented in Figures 2 and 4 show the dynamics of fluorescence detection and it's strong dependance on the presence of the LVA degradation tag. In early exponential phase the difference between this part BBa_K2675056 and the positive control (BBa_K2675066) is very limited. The influence of the LVA degradation tag starts to be visible in middle exponential phase, to reach its maximum in stationary phase. These observations can be clearly made for all 3 E. coli strains studied.

No fluorescence was detected for the negative control, as expected and the growth curves are similar.
