Platform for terminators analysis under the control of T7 promoter

We used this part to test terminators: the two subsequent proteins allow termination efficiency's quantification as the ratio between Venus's and Cherry's fluorescence. The vector is pET21b, that contains lacI, t7 promoter and ampicillin resistance gene.We inserted the prefix-suffix linker between the two proteins, to allow terminator's characterization, and mutated the two illegal sites present in the original plasmid.

The two fluorescent proteins have partially overlapping emission spectra, thus, to avoid unwanted interferences, the fluorimetric measures should be taken with these parameters: Venus excitation: 485nm, Venus emission: 528nm Cherry excitation: 528nm, Cherry emission: 615nm.

This is the twin construct of BBa_K731710, where the T7 promoter has been replaced with Ptac. The two constructs allow terminators' characterization with different RNApolymerase and analysis of any potential difference. We tested both constructs in the E.Coli strain BL21pLysS, that has both Coli and T7 polymerases.
