pelB-pueB expression

PUR degradation enzyme from Pseudomonas chlororaphis.

Characterisation

Our PueB construct was tested for growth upon induction by addition of Xylose.

PueB growth assay. E. coli (MG1655) transformed with PueB BBa_K1149004 were grown with either 0% or 2% Xylose to induce PueB expression. There was no difference between no induction and induction as a t-test gave p = 0.6040 > 0.05. Growth was at 37°C with shaking. Error bars are SEM, n=4. Figure made by Imperial College London 2013 iGEM.

Conclusion: There is no growth inhibition caused by induction in PueB.
