T7 Promoter+RBS+B-1E
Introduction
It has been known as an antibacterial peptide that has activity against representative Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacterial species. Its grade given by Scoring Card, which was created by NCTU_Formosa, shows it may also have an anti-fungal function.
Scoring Card Predict
B-1E got 402.91 points from the Anti-fungal Scoring Card of Parabase System, which was created by NCTU_Formosa. The grade is over 353, the threshold to divide whether a peptide has an anti-fungal function probability, that means B-1E has high probability to have an anti-fungal function.
Experiment
1. Fungal Test
(1) Inhibition Zone
We put some mycelium on a Potato dextrose agar plate, PDA plate, and cultivated it at the point of 20℃ for culturing Botrytis cinerea, the fungi we used, for 2 days. Ensuring the mycelial colony has developed, we dug holes and different concentrations of B-1E and HEPES, as a negative control, were added respectively. The place where peptide been but will appear a hole after 12 ~ 18 hours if the peptide will affect the growth of mycelium. The result shows that the place we put B-1E will have a hole. It means the peptide will affect the growth of mycelium.
(2) Spore Germination
To know whether the anti-fungal peptides can inhibit the germination of spores, we conducted the spore germination experiment.
(3) Botany Experiment
In order to test our anti-fungal peptides, we put B-1E and negative control, Double-distilled water, on the flower. The negative controlis on the left hand and B-1E on the right hand. Both sides are infected with Botrytis cinerea. We will check the flower 3 days later whether the flower was affected or not. The result shows that the right side, which was spread on B-1E, is not infected. It means B-1E has an anti-fungal function.
2. Cloning
We put T7 promoter, RBS, and B-1E together with pSB1C3 as a backbone. Then we conducted Taq PCR to check the size of the DNA sequence was right. The length of T7 promoter+RBS+B-1E is around 100 ~ 200 b.p.. Its PCR product is around 250 ~ 500 b.p..
