Modified Gal promoter
Introduction
By looking through the literature, we found that this promoter can be induced by estradiol to promote the expression of subsequent genes.
Experiment
Initially, when we build a receptor expression system, the promoters we use are Pfba1, but if the plasmids that express the umami receptor, the plasmids that express the sweet receptor, and the plasmids that express the bitter receptor are all imported into the Saccharomyces cerevisiae at the same time, it may cause the growth difficulties of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae and aggravate it metabolic burden. After discussion and literature reading, we decided to add different induced promoters to the plasmids that express the taste receptor, so that when different inducers are added, the Saccharomyces cerevisiae can express different taste receptor proteins to detect different tastes. We selected three induced promoters: Modified Gal promoter, PADH7, and PCUP1. Modified Gal promoter is induced by estradiol, PADH7 is induced by balsamic, and PCUP1 is induced by copper ions. The experiments on Modified Gal promoter are described below.
Promoter strength determination
We design the following plasmids, import them into the Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and prepare to measure the fluorescence intensity with an enzyme meter to characterize the promoter strength with fluorescent intensity/OD600.
The measured data are drawn as the figure below. According to the figure, in a certain range, increasing the dosage of estradiol can enhance the strength of Modified Gal promoter and facilitate the expression of subsequent genes.
