Applications of BBa_K374009

Biolector experiment

The biobrick was cloned into the pSB4A5 plasmid, and a GFP reporter gene was inserted downstream of it pR promoter. The plasmid was transformed into E.coli (DH5 alpha) and measurements were done on this strain using a BioLector microreactor system. The BioLector is a microfermenting system that measures biomass and fluorescence simultaneously. From this construct no GFP expression is expected as repression of the pR promoter by the GtgR repressor is tight. As a reference the repressor was removed from the construct allowing GFP expression from the pR promoter.

Procedure

  • OD600 of a 10 mL O/N LB culture with required antibiotics was measured
  • Culture was diluted to an OD600 of 0.05
  • 1.5 mL of diluted culture was added to each of the 48 wells
  • An Adhesive Gas Permeable Seal membrane was applied to the plate
  • An Adhesive Seal for Evaporation Reduction on top of the Gas Permeable Seal was applied
  • The microplate was incubated in the biolector and fluorescence and light scattering was measured under these conditions:
    • 37 degrees Celcius
    • sampling time 6 times
    • fluorescence gain of 80
    • biomass excitation 620 nm (light scattering)
    • GFP filter was 486nm (ex) / 510nm (em)
