Hence the team constructed this part from the registry by ligating [https://parts.igem.org/wiki/index.php?title=Part:BBa_R0010 BBa_R0010] with [https://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_E0240 BBa_E02040]. The BBa_E02040 consist of the biobrick parts: BB0034, E0040, B0010 and B0012.

pLacI-GFP

The construct design

‎BBa K117004

This biobrick device has a lacI regulated promoter which upon the induction of lactose/IPTG, will casue the expression of the reporter gene, Green fluorescence protein (GFP EE0040).

Abnormality found in the registry

This device could be found in the registry in the form of BBa_J04430. However, the team found an abnormality when BBa_J04430 was transformed into Top 10 cells. As shown on the pictures below, the cells glow pink instead of green under UV light.

Characterization of pLacI-GFP

The NTU@iGEM team characterized the biobrick part pLacI-GFP. The influence of 1)concentration of Lactose 2) temperature and 3) time were investigated.

Shown below is the graph obtained for the experiment conducted at 37°C.
