Pu promoter long version with stop codon
This is an adapted version of the Pu promoter BBa_I723020. The original design contains the RBS and first 81bp of the XylU. To prevent unwanted fusion proteins from emerging (when this BioBrick is cloned without scar), a double stop codon was inserted at the end of the promoter.
Characterization
Experimental setup
E. coli strain JM101 was transformed with two plasmids containing the transcriptional regulator XylR, the degradation cassette xylMABN and a GFP reporter coupled to BBa_K625002 respectively BBa_K625003. For the first two of those we used the plasmid pCK04AxylR according to [1]. The reporter plasmid we constructed ourselves by using BBa_K625005 as a backbone.
We inoculated 50 mL of LB medium with an overnight culture of the co-transformed strains and set the OD600 to 0.1. Upon reaching the exponential growth phase, the cultures were induced with m-xylene. Therefore we put a sterile test tube with m-xylene into the flask and sealed it with parafilm in order to get an air-induced response.
The samples were taken 3 hours after induction. OD600 and GFP fluorescence was measured then in a 96-well plate.
