| |
− | <p>To measure the sweetness of sweeteners, we designed the detection circuit. This composite part is based on the Saccharomyces cerevisiae pheromone signaling pathway. It contains a yeast induced promoter Pfus, a mRFP reporter, and a yeast terminator. In CEN.PK2-1C (a mating type yeast) Pfus is activated by α pheromone, thereby initiating the expression of the reporter gene.</p>

| |
− | <p>We constructed Pfus-mRFP-cyc1t-PRS42K recombinant plasmid, and transformed it into CEN.PK2-1C (a type). </p>

− | <p>Cells transformed with the signal reporter device were cultured to the exponential phase and treated with α pheromone.</p>
| |
− | <p>We added 5umol/L α pheromone into the transformed yeast. And after 4 hours, it was fluorescent.</p>

− | <p>In order to characterize the function of detection circuit, we measured absorbance and fluorescence of the cells in the plate reader after treating them with varying concentrations of α pheromone. </p>

| |
− | <p>As shown in this figure, adding higher concentration of α pheromone, the fluorescence intensity of the yeast increases. After 20 hours, α pheromone gradually failed, and the fluorescence intensity also decreased.</p>
