Inductive expression of FXR-ddRFPA1-RXR-ddRFPB1

In order to find an appropriate expression intensity to achieve balance between metabolic burden and detection efficiency, we also tried T7lac promoter from pET-29a+(Novagen).

The composite part can be directly imported into plasmid and express FXR-ddRFPA1 and RXR-ddRFPB1 induced with IPTG.

We constructed FXR-ddRFPA1 and RXR-ddRFPB1 expression plasmids with different promoters(BBa_J23105, T7 promoter). And cultured them in LB medium with antibiotics and grew at 37°C to OD600 of about 0.6. Then IPTG was added to the final concentration of 0.5mM and induced protein expression at 28℃ for 3 hours. We tested fluorescence intensity at different concentrations of CDCA (0, 10, 25, 50, 100μM) in E.coli BL21(DE3). Samples were taken after incubation at room temperature for eight hours. Fig. 1 shows the effects of CDCA concentration and promoter intensity on different plasmids within the cell.

It is clear that at a CDCA concentration of 25μM, the T7 lac promoter has the best results. Therefore, we chose T7 lac promoter to form our final detection device. Sequence and Features
