pBAD-E15'UTR->sfGFP
pBAD-E15'UTR->sfGFP construct is derived from pBAD (Arashort1, BBa_K1741000) Escherichia coli K-12 arabinose promoter, which we fused with E1_5’UTR (Fig. 1). E1_5’UTR contains an additional ribosome binding site from gene 10 of bacteriophage T7. The new promoter controls the expression of sfGFP with a His-tag at its N-end. The fluorescent protein sfGFP is a marker of gene expression and protein synthesis/accumulation. Protein expression from all compared arabinose responsive promoters was induced in rich media with 0.4% L-arabinose.
Fig. 1 Synthetic evolution of E.coli arabinose induced promoters in our lab. pBAD-E15'UTR (Arashort1-E1) is a promoter without AraC ORF, with E1_5’UTR containing the additional ribosome binding site from gene 10 of bacteriophage T7.
pBAD-E15'UTR (Arashort1-E1) is most likely the strongest of all available arabinose promoters. Its activity was compared to wild-type version (AraC-pBAD, BBa_K1481002 ) and to previously constructed arabinose promoters: Arashort1 (pBAD, BBa_K1741000), Ara1-UTR (pBAD-M5'UTR, BBa_K2014003) during 6h E.coli DH5α culture in LB medium supplemented with 0.4% L-arabinose (Fig. 2, Fig. 3). The pBAD-E15'UTR (Arashort1-E1) promoter-5’UTR fusion enables much higher protein expression in comparison to four other versions of arabinose promoter-UTR versions. The addition of E1_5'UTR increases promoter’s activity approximately 10-times in E.coli cells, grown in standard LB medium.
Fig. 2. Inducibility of pBAD-E15’UTR (Arashort1-E1) and AraC-pBAD (AraWT) promoters in E.coli grown in LB medium containing 0,4% L-arabinose. The efficiency of promoters was compared based on relative fluorescence intensity of produced sfGFP measured every 1 h after induction. OD600 shows that the growth rate of E.coli in both compared cultures is similar.
Fig. 3. Comparison between pBAD-E_15’UTR (Arashort1-E1) and our four previous arabinose promoter versions in E. coli grown in LB medium, induced with 0,4% L-arabinose. E.coli DH5α with appropriate constructs containing sfGFP were cultured for 6h after induction with 0,4% L-arabinose . The efficiency of promoters was compared based on relative fluorescence intensity of produced sfGFP.
Fig. 4. Selection of CPEC assembled clones of the construct pBAD-E15'UTR->sfGFP which produces His-tagged sfGFP on M9 minimal medium with chloramphenicol (75ug/ml) and 0.4% arabinose.
New, improved arabinose promoter pBAD-E15'UTR ensures approximately 10-fold increase in promoter’s activity. The addition of E1_5'UTR enables much higher protein expression in comparison to four other arabinose promoter-UTR versions.
