Other teams (Slovenia 2010, Cambridge 2009) had characterized arabinos induced promoters.
Given the complexity of our system, we needed to guarantee an effective expression of our constructs with an optimal concentration for induction by L-arabinose.
The protocol was taken from Team Cambridge 2009 and Tec-Monterrey 2010.
Pick three different colonies that contain the desired part to be characterized and place each of them in a different 50 mL tube with 5 mL LB medium.
Add 1 μL of the corresponding antibiotic per each mL of LB medium.
Pick one colony that does not contain the plasmid with the part that will be characterized (control) and place it in a 50 mL tube with 5 mL LB medium.
Incubate all the 4 tubes for 16 hours on a shaker at 37°C and 350 rpm.
Check the OD600 of the cultures and dilute with fresh LB medium until an OD600 of 0.1 is reached. Make sure that you have at least 7 mL of each culture.
Add 1 μL of the corresponding antibiotic per each mL of LB medium.
Incubate all the 4 tubes on a shaker at 37°C and 350 rpm until an OD600 of 0.6 is reached.
Fill each well with 198 μl of inoculum and 2 μl of L-Arabinose at different concentrations. Make 3 repetitions of each colony with the different concentrations of L-Arabinose.
The microplate is then read by the microplate reader by using the following protocol: Set temperature to 37°C
Kinetic reading lasting 4 hours with measurements every 5 minutes.
Absorbance (600 nm filter) and Fluorescence (Excitation: 485 nm, Emission: 528 nm).
Shaking in intensity 2 for 5 seconds before every reading.
Export the results of the well data to an Excel sheet for further interpretation.
The vehicle of expression was BW2773 strain, recommended for its inability to metabolize arabinose.
