ECUST_China 2019 characterization

In ECUST_China 2019 characterization, we added the Plac before the CⅠgene and used mRFP as the reporter gene to measure the effectiveness of this part. In the absence of IPTG, CⅠP was constitutively expressed so that the RFP fluorescence could be observed. However, as the concentration of IPTG increasing, Plac was activated to express CⅠprotein which inhibited the transcription of CⅠP ,so the fluorescence of mRFP decreased.

Quantitative Characterization from iGEM20-XMU-China

        Inverter is mainly composed of cI repressor from E. coli phage lambda and pR promoter which is inhibited by cI repressor. It can reverse the inducer action of the upstream promoter. It was registered in 2003.

Fig.3 Genetic circuits of Inverter

        We constructed “PBad/araC-RBS-EYFP-pSB1C3” and “PBad/araC-Inverter-RBS-EYFP-pSB1C3” in E.coli BL21(DE3)to characterize its function.

        For the latter circuit, cI repressor will not express in the absence of arabinose so that the fluorescence of EYFP can be observed. At the certain concentration of arabinose, PBad/araC can be activated to express cI repressor to inhibit the pR promoter,so the fluorescence of EYFP decreases.

        The fluorescence/OD600 values of these two circuits were measured with or without arabinose and compared with “PBad/araC-pSB1C3” in E.coli BL21(DE3). We discovered that the downstream gene of proBAD/araC can be expressed in the presence of arabinose and decrease expression without arabinose. When the inverter is added to the circuit, the effect is reversed. The result proves that inverter can function correctly and reverse the effect of PBad/araC.

Fig.4 The results of Fluorescence Intensity/OD.Yellow represents PBad/araC, green represents PBad/araC-EYFP, and purple represents PBad/araC -Inverter-EYFP.
