To determine the constants v5 and K5 we performed the following steps:

  1. Read the wild-type line in figure 1B of Meng 2004 by pasting it in a drawing program and aligning/scaling the axes and then manually determining the coordinates of each data point.
  2. Converted to units of concentration using the data in Meng 2004 and [http://gchelpdesk.ualberta.ca/CCDB/cgi-bin/STAT_NEW.cgi the CCDB] (assuming that the cells are resting/non-growing), see our [http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=t4gilzCbEaCFAvpEVWUE_zQ Google Docs spreadsheet]. Here we disregarded the fact that the measurements were made by taking out 0.1mL samples, as this does not change the concentrations. Specifically (note that uptake is in nmol/mg):
    • uptaketotal (nmol) = uptake · 8mg · 0.3
      The ratio between dry and wet weight is 0.3 (see the [http://gchelpdesk.ualberta.ca/CCDB/cgi-bin/STAT_NEW.cgi CCDB]).
       i 
    • As(III)ex (µM=nmol/mL) = (10nmol/mL · 1mL - uptaketotal) / (1.1-0.0073)mL
      The experiment started with 1mL of a 10µM=10nmol/mL solution of As(III). After adding the cells the total volume of the solution was 1.1mL, and 0.0073mL is an estimate of the total volume of cells in the solution, see below.
       i 
  3. Fit the Michaelis-Menten equation to find the constants v5 and K5 in Mathematica (see [http://igemgroningen.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/buoyant/Models/Meng2004%20Figure%201B.nb the Mathematica notebook in SVN]) using the method from Goudar 1999 (a least squares fit of a closed-form solution of the differential equation).

Design Notes

This part has been pcr-ed out of the genome of E.coli 356 in two steps. First the whole gene was pcred out the genome and in the second step an EcoR1 restiction site was removed.

Source

This part comes from genomic DNA of the Escherichia coli 536.
