Las receiver with GFP reporter (LasR+pLas+GFP)

The gene encoding the transcriptional activator LasR is downstream a constitutive Anderson promoter, j23101. LasR is activated by 3O-C12-HSL. Included in the construct is the LasR-activated promoter pLas upstream of a reporter sequence including GFP.

Figure 1. Characterisation of the Las response device (BBa_K1893001). (A) Transfer function curve of normalised fluorescence against cognate inducer C12-AHL (3O-C12 AHL) concentrations. (B) Heat map of normalised fluorescence of RhlR-GFP system over a range of AHL concentrations: (i) Binding of RhlR-GFP to its cognate AHL (C4 AHL). (ii) Binding of RhlR-GFP to 3 non-cognate AHLs (3O-C6 AHL, 3O-C12 AHL, 3OH-C14 AHL). (C) Transfer function curves of normalised fluorescence against non-cognate inducer AHL (3O-C12 AHL) concentrations to investigate inducer AHL crosstalk: (i) C4-AHL of the Rhl system (ii) C6-AHL (3O-C6 AHL) of the Lux system (iii) C14-AHL (3O-C14 AHL) of the Cin system. Experiments were performed in E. coli Top10 cell strain cultured at 37°C. Normalised fluorescence was calculated by dividing fluorescent signal by cell density (OD600). Fluorescence measurements were recorded at 180 minutes. Reported values represent the mean normalised fluorescence value from 3 technical repeats and error bars represent standard deviation of these.
