Promoter Characterization: J23100, without RiboJ

This part is part of a library of parts designed to characterize the influence of RiboJ on the absolute gene expression level on various promoters, including the entire Anderson Promoter Library.

The part follows the UNS standard developed by William and Mary iGEM 2016, in which the insert is flanked by UNS 2 (BBa_K2066018) and UNS 3 (BBa_K2066019) for ease of cloning via Gibson or Golden Gate Assembly.

William and Mary iGEM 2017 characterized this tagless construct along with IPTG-inducible mf-Lon protease as a control for their degradation rate and speed change effect measurements. This part was used to facilitate characterization of protein degradation tag strengths by measuring time to steady-state fluorescence values of sfGFP under the control of the strong constitutive promoter BBa_J23100. See [http://2017.igem.org/Team:William_and_Mary/Results William and Mary's 2017 project] for more details. This part is one of a series of sfGFP reporter pdt parts. Series range is from BBa_K2333407 to BBa_K2333412.

Usage and Biology

This part contains J23100 constitutive promoter, BBa_B0034 (RBS), a double stop codon and BBa_B0015 (double terminator) in the William and Mary iGEM Universal Nucleotide Sequences (UNS) format. See Torella, et. al (2013). In order to demonstrate that protein degradation tags operated similarly regardless of the tagged protein, sfGFP reporters that were analogous to the mScarlet-I parts (BBa_K2333413 to BBa_K2333419) were built and characterized. This demonstrates that the protein degradation tags are modular and that they have differential strengths even when they are tagged on different proteins.

Characterization

W&M 2017 characterized this tagless construct along with IPTG-inducible mf-Lon protease as a control for their degradation rate and speed change effect measurements. The graphs below show this degradation characterization along with the data from the other tags in this series (BBa_K2333427-BBa_K2333433). The graph below shows this preliminary degradation characterization along with the data from the other tags in this series (BBa_K2333407-BBa_K2333412). While degradation is occurring, it does not necessarily line up with all of the expected tag strengths. This could be due to constraints surrounding plate reader measurements or inconsistencies with the sfGFP reporter itself.
