RNA Thermometer NoChill-06

RNA thermometers are a form of translational regulation. This RNA thermometer was designed to have a high fold change between 25°C and 30°C, but ended up having a high fold change between 25 °C and 37 °C. It is an improvement upon the part BBa_K11502.

Design Notes

The stem-loop structure of the thermometer was created by taking the complement of the ribosome binding site (RBS) and adding nucleotides to either side. The additional bases were mutated; the resulting altered sequence is known as the variable region. Mutating the variable region keeps the RBS intact while modifying the RNA thermometer secondary structure to change the melting temperature. There is no internal BsaI cut site, since it would render the thermometer incompatible with our assembly method. The part is TypeIIS compatible. Figure 1a-c showing the RNA thermometer structures were designed using NUPACK software.

Results and analysis

To verify that the RNA thermometer could work, we constructed pUC57-J23110-RNA thermometer-neGFP (BBa_K3733012) plasmid and transformed it into E.coli DH5α. We cultured both experimental group and control group at both 37 ℃ and 28 ℃ for 12 hours and detected RFU / OD600 by a microplate reader. As the result shown in Figure 1, RFU / OD600 data of the media at 37 ℃ are obviously higher than ones at 28 ℃, which could explain the RNA thermometer is valid.
