Dh5alpha cells were co-transformed with the BBa_K201001 on a high copy number plasmid (pSB1A2) and BBa_K201002 on a low copy number plasmid (pSB3K3). To experimentally and mathematically characterize the device and its sensitive to the inducer, we performed both a static and a dynamic GFP analysis after IPTG induction.

Static analysis. Cells were inoculated in 5 ml of M9 medium with 0, 10, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100 uM IPTG, respectively. After O/N growth at 37° (about 12 h) samples were collected and slides prepared for microscope analysis. Images were then analyzed with the [http://2009.igem.org/Team:Bologna/Software VIFluoR software]. To obtain a significant representation of bacterium fluorescence, it was necessary to acquire several images, each one reporting a sufficient number of bacterial cells. VIFluoR operates the image segmentation and then recognises the bacterial cells yielding the mean fluorescence per bacterium as the output. The experimental data(Fig. 1) were used to identify by the [http://2009.igem.org/Team:Bologna/Modeling mathematical model] the operator binding affinity for the repressor LacI.

Fig.1. Experimental data (blue lines) of the static induction after 0, 10, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100 uM IPTG induction of the system. Tha data were fitted by the model (green line) to identify the operator-repressor binding affinity (K= 1 molecule

After model parameter were identified,

Dynamic analysis. Dh5alpha cells were inoculated in the morning (9 a.m.) in 5 ml of M9 medium with no IPTG. After daily growth (about 8 h) the culture was diluited to an OD equal to 0.1. 200 ul of the culture with 0 and 100 uM IPTG were used to fill a 96-well plate and samples were grown into a fluorimeter (Tecan M200) O/N (about 12h) at 37°. In the morning fluorescence data were analyzed and used to fit the model (Fig. 3 and 4).
