Design Notes

To visualize that GFP SF actually is exported, we constructed a procedure for growing the cells and tracing the GFP SF to the periplasm (Skoog, Karl, et al.). As we initially found, if you just grow cells in LB and induce the GFP SF/RFP expression, there will be too much GFP SF in the cytoplasm to get a good resolution between cytoplasm and periplasm. That is why it’s important to devise a procedure for stopping the production for GFP SP and thereafter tracing it from the cytoplasm into the periplasm. This underlines the importance of having a non-leaky inducible expression system; when expression is stopped by removing the inducer it would spoil the procedure if the system kept leaking out GFP SF into the cytoplasm.

After optimizing the procedure we made a final version which can be found in the [http://2013.igem.org/Team:DTU-Denmark/Methods/Visualizing_GFP_in_the_periplasm DTU-Denmark 2013 wiki methods page]. This also includes how to use background subtraction to get a better resolution.
