As intracellular copper leads to toxic effects in the cell (read more on our <a href="http://2018.igem.org/Team:Bielefeld-CeBiTec/Toxicity_Theory" target="_blank">toxicity</a>) page, an increased uptake of Cu(II) ions should slow down and exacerbate cell growth. Therefore, we examined the growth of <i>E. coli</i> KRX expressing <i>oprC</i> in lysogeny broth (LB) media with 30 ng/µL chloramphenicol supplemented with different concentrations of CuSO<sub>4</sub> (0 mM, 1 mM, 2 mM, 3 mM, 4 mM, 8 mM) by measuring the optical density at a wavelength of 600 nm (OD600). As a control we decided to use the pSB1C3 null vector under same conditions as well. The measurement was performed with the <a href="https://lifesciences.tecan.com/plate_readers/infinite_200_pro" target="_blank"> Infinite® 200 PRO</a> in a 24 wellplate with flat bottom (Greiner&reg;). For expression of the BioBricks either a T7 promoter and a ribosome binding site (RBS) (BBa_K525998) or a combination of the <i>pBAD/araC</i> promoter (BBa_I0500) and a RBS (BBa_B0030) (RBS) were cloned upstream of (<i>oprC</i> (BBa_K2638200).

OprC (TonB dependent copper transport porin)

OprC is an outer membrane porin which binds and transports specifically copper. It belongs to the the superfamily of the TonB-dependent transporters. This variant of OprC was taken from Pseudomonas brassicacearum 3Re2-7 13, a not yet published strain.
