Team NRP-UEA (2013) used mutagenesis to add a Nde1 site at the start of the RFP coding region of the biobrick BBa_J04450. This enables a restriction digest with Nde1 to be performed allowing the RFP coding region to be excised from the plasmid.

RFP Coding Device

Team NRP-UEA_Norwich 2013 added an NdeI restriction site at the start of the RFP coding region of BBa_J04450 using mutagenesis. This was to allow either the promoter region or RFP gene to be excised and exchanged for a different promoter or gene and provide restriction sites for further cloning such as part Bba_K1041002.

Composite part of the following BioBricks:

LacI
R0010
B0034		mRFP1
E1010
B0015

Characterisation

Characterisation of this biobrick involved comparisons with the original Bba_J04450 biobrick by performing transformations, restriction digests and BLAST analysis. We also had our biobrick sequenced.

Transformation

Parts BBa_K1041000 and BBa_J04450 were transformed into Alpha-Select competent E.Coli cells and plated onto LB Agar plates which contained the antibiotic ampicillin. Both plates have colonies that appear red under natural light fig.1. Therefore the addition of a NdeI site has not effected the ability for the RFP gene to be transcribed.

Sequencing

The biobrick was sent off to a company for sequencing.

BLAST Analysis

The data we recieved back from the sequencing company was aligned using BLAST with the expected DNA sequence fig.2
