I : parts BBa_K3147003 function
This construction produces an mRFP1 (BBA_E1010)[1] fused in C-ter with a ssrA fast degradation tag [2] (BBA_M0050). The TEV cutting site (BBa_J18918) was added between the mRFP1 and the ssrA tag. This is a sister construction to our sfGFP TEV reporter (Ba_K3147000). This construction was used to test the specificity of KARMA using a VHH targeting GFP. In the presence of TEV the ssrA is cleaved and mRFP1 is not degraded anymore.
II. Proof of function
This construction was cloned by Gibson Assembly in a pBbB8k-GFP (https://www.addgene.org/35363/ ) backbone under the control of a pBAD promoter.
We compared the basal fluorescence of strain E. coli NEB10β transformed with the mRFP1-TEVcs construction to an E. coli NEB10β strain transformed with the mRFP1-TEVcs-ssrA construction. Fluorescence was quantified after overnight induction with 1% arabinose on a plate reader.
Below are the fluorescence measurements of the mRFP1-TEVcs-ssrA and of the mRFP1-TEVcss at 30 and 37°C.
