In this circuit, LacI can repress pTrc-2 promoter and pTrc-2 derivative promoter ，while tetR can repress pLtetO-1 promoter. When ATc exits, it combines with tetR, so that pLtetO-1 promoter can’t be repressed. Then LacI which is controlled by pLtetO-1 can repress the pTrc-2 promoter and pTrc-2 derivative promoter. As a result, mf-lon and MazF can’t be expressed.

As a kind of bacterial toxin, the expression of MazF often lead to the death of bacteria. So there comes the conclusion that as long as the engineered ''E.coli'' are cultured in the environment with ATc, it won’t be killed by the mazF, but when the ''E.coli'' escape from our detection instrument, the effect can be reversed. That is to say, the ''E.coli'' will be killed by MazF. In the same way, we can see that in the presence of IPTG, MazF can be expressed and kill the ''E.coli''.

LacI-ssrAtag(mf-lon)

LacI is a protein that can repress pTrc-2 promoter and pTrc-2 derivative promoter in absence of IPTG. Especially, the part has ssrAtag(mf-lon), which means it can be degraded by mf-lon.

Usage and Biology

LacI is a protein that can repress pTrc-2 and pTrc-2 derivative promoter in absence of IPTG. Especially, the part has ssrAtag(mf-lon), which means it can be degraded by mf-lon.

Fig 1. Kill switch of the detection part.

In this circuit, LacI can repress pTrc-2 promoter and pTrc-2 derivative promoter ，while tetR can repress pLtetO-1 promoter. When ATc exits, it combines with tetR, so that pLtetO-1 promoter can't be repressed. Then LacI which is controlled by pLtetO-1 can repress pTrc-2 promoter and pTrc-2 derivative promoter. As a result, mf-lon and mazF can't be expressed.

As a kind of bacterial toxin, the expression of mazF often leads to the death of bacteria. So there comes the conclusion that the engineered E.coli won’t be killed by mazF as long as it is cultured in the environment with ATc. Therefore, when the E.coli escapes from our detection instrument, the effects can be reversed. That is to say, the E.coli will be killed by mazF. In the same way, we can see that mazF can be expressed and kill the E.coli in the presence of IPTG, MazF can be expressed and kill the E.coli.

Note：E0420 is equal to B0034_E0020_B0015

Protocol:

1. Preparation of stock solution:dissolve IPTG in absolute alcohol to make 1000× stock solution.

2.Culture glycerol bacteria containing the corresponding plasmid in test tube for 12h.

3.Add 4 mL of the above bacterial solution into 100 mL LB medium and maintain the culture condition at 37 ℃ and 180 rpm.

4.Add 100μL IPTG stock solution into the induction group when OD600 increased to 0.6.

5.Induce for 6 hours and the condition is the same as before.

6.Then, sampling 0.5mL culture in each tube. All samples are centrifuged at 12000rpm, 1 minute. Remove supernatant and add 500µL sterile PBS to resuspend.

7.Measure the fluorescence intensity(ECFP) and corresponding OD600 by 96-well plate reader, then calculate the fluorescence / OD value of each group.

Here is the result:

caption

Fig 5. Fluorescence intensity/OD for induction and non-induction group (6 hours). Data are collected and analyzed according to iGEM standard data analysis form after 6 hours of induction.

The strength of pTrc-2-derivative and pTrc-2 are contrasted. In the figure, pTrc2-derivative are used as the negative control group, the pTrc2-derivative_E0420(ECFP) are used as the positive control group while the pLtetO-1_LacI_pTrc-2_E0420 (ECFP) and pLtetO-1_LacI_pTrc-2_derivative_E0420(ECFP) are both experimental group.

We can see, after adding IPTG to induce the two promoters, the fluorescence intensity are both improved. The change of fluorescence intensity after induction of pLtetO-1-LacI-pTrc2-E0420(ECFP) group is larger than pLtetO-1-LacI-pTrc2-derivative-E0420(ECFP) group, so we can confirm that the LacI has a weak inhibitory effect on pTrc-2 promoter.

Fig 6. In each group，the EP tubes on the left is non-induction group while the one on the right is induction group.

From this figure, the induction effect can be seen more intuitively.
