In order to find suitable arabinose concentrations to induce expression of the construct, the protein coding sequences were substituted by a GFP reporter, BBa_e0040. A double terminator, BBa_e0014, was added as well. The expression vehicle was Escherichia coli, BW27783 strain, due to its inability to metabolize arabinose. Fluorescence was measured in transformed E. coli cultures induced with different concentrations of L-arabinose (1%), following the protocol used by Cambridge (2009) and Tec-Monterrey (2010).
The chart shows that at low concentrations of arabinose, poor induction levels are obtained since fluorescence changes very little over time. A noticeable increase of fluorescence is viewed from a concentration of 100 µM onwards. Similar results were found in BBa_I0500 characterization by Cambridge (2011) and Groningen (2011), proving further the effectiveness of using this concentration of arabinose as a minimum to induce expression of the construct.
