Applications of BBa_K194002
Results of the fermentations of the biobricks
Growth rates (h-1) obtained for the two strains containing the two biobricks ( GFP_Cln and GFP) with glucose as carbon source
Strain | Growth Rate |
| <p>GFP_Cln | 0,080 ± 0,003 |
GFP |
0,129 ± 0,001 |
The growth profile of these two strains in Glucose and in a mixed carbon source of Glucose and Galactose is presented bellow. <p>

both strains show very similar behavior. With Glucose as the solely carbon source, the curve presents a distinct exponential phase corresponding to the consumption of this substrate. After Glucose is consumed, OD seems to drop. Although there is not a decrease in cells, this drop might be due to morphological changes in the cells typical of a shift in the metabolism. As for the curves representing the mixed carbon, there are two exponential phases, the first corresponding to the glucose consumption and the second to the Galactose.
The next two graphs represent the variation of the GFP signal corrected and normalized with OD to subtract any variability that could come from the differences of growth
As one can see, there is a significant difference between this two constructs in terms of GFP signal. As expected, the signal from the degradable GFP is much lower than the signal showed by the non-degradable GFP, as the GFP that is not being degraded is accumulating and giving a stronger signal.
This results go in line with the results published by Avery and Mateus [3] that state that the degradable GFP has a 14 times shorter half-life than the non-degradable.
therefore, based on this results we demontrate that the biobrick BBa_K194002 submited, presents a good option as a fast degradable GFP for yeast
