CII-TT-pRE-RBS-GFP-LVAssrAtag

Genetic circuit for verifying the function of pRE promoter under the enhancing of CII.
We construct this circuit to verify the function of pRE promoter under the enhancing of CII. And this circuit also can be the control group when we explore the enhanced effect of multi-CII toward pRE promoter.

Protein&promoter

CII (BBa_K2036000) functions as a transcriptional activator to direct promoter RE, so we constructed CII-TT-pRE-RBS-GFP-LVAssrAtag as test group and pRE-RBS-GFPLVAssrAtag as CK to see if CII efficiently activate pRE.

Fig: CII and pRE activation test

According to the Flourescence measurement curve above, we can see clearly that GFP level increased over time and it showed significant difference from CK. We also did Fluorescence microscope detection after 30, 120 and 240 minutes induction. According to the figture below, we can tell qualitively that pRE leakage are at relative low level and CII can efficiently activate the promoter.

In order to prove that our toolkit is efficient to switch two interest genes’ expression from GFP to RFP and to eliminate the accumulation of expressed protein to interfere our measurement. We fused a degradation tag at the amino terminal of our reporter. And we used plac from the Rgistery (BBa_J04500) to characterize the degradation tag LVAssrA. We use IPTG with final concentration of 1mM to induce the GFP-LVAssrAtag and measure the relative fluorescence through plate reader with Excitation light 495nm.

From the figure above, we are sorry to find that plac can not be prohibited from leakage, as there are nearly no difference between the test and control group. But we are confident to prove the high degradation efficiency of the tag as more than two thirds of the GFP degraded within 90 minutes which also offered an interesting and useful tool for rapidly down regulating certain target protein.
