J23100 fim switch ON orientation

The fim transcriptor is capable of changing states completely and unidirectionally fig. 2 NEB 10-beta E. coli, which lack the native fim switch (fimS), were co-transformed with either constitutive hbiF or fimE and BBa_K1077007 (J23100 fim switch, ON orientation). E. coli expressing hbiF recombnase constitutively displayed a deep blue phenotype (A). This is consistent with hbiF’s previously observed functionality of catalyzing the inversion of fimS from the OFF to ON orientation. E. coli expressing fimE recombinase constitutively displayed a deep blue phenotype (fig. x). This is consistent with hbiF’s previously observed functionality of catalyzing the inversion of fimS from the OFF to ON orientation.

The state of the switch was assayed by using an asymmetric digest assay. There are two hincII sites located within the K1077007 switch, one of which changes position depending on the state of the switch. The result is that when the switch is in the ON position, a 870bp, 273bp, and 248bp band is produced. When the switch is in the OFF position, a 680bp, 473bp, and 273bp band is produced. The digest assay was quantified using densitometry, showing greater than 95% of the switch in the desired state (ON when co transformed with constitutive hbiF and OFF when co transformed with constitutive fimE).
