amilCP blue chromoprotein with strong promoter

This is a blue/purple chromoprotein (amilCP: BBa_K592009) with the RBS B0034 (BBa_B0034) and a strong promoter (CP29: BBa_K1033222). The construct has been shown to work in E. coli and should work in Lactobacillus.

(Construct name: pSB1C3-CP29-B0034-amilCP)

Team KUAS_Korea 2017: characterization

We tested the functionality of K1033222 as a constitutive promoter and expression of amilCP chromoprotein in the Escherichia coli DH5alpha.

DH5alpha containing the control(pSB1C3) and BBa_K1033282, respectively, were cultured in LB medium containing chloramphenicol.

Absorbances were measured every 30 minutes using BioRad SmartSpecPlus at 588 nm and 800 nm.


RTq-PCR of D-NY15 driven by BBa_K431009 promoter. RNA were issued from Pichia pastoris strains with or without the D-NY15 encoding gene. Total RNAs were extracted from transformants and reverse transcriptions were performed using Superscript II reverse transcriptase (Invitrogen). Resulting D-NY15 cDNA were then amplified by quantitative PCR. The curves correspond to P. pastoris with integrated pPICZalpha-DNY15 (A1, A2, A3), water control (B1 & B2), and P. pastoris with integrated pPICZalpha (C1, C2, C3).

The amount of fluorescence provided by the qRT-PCR with the D-NY15 primers rose after 8 cycles whereas the negative control (pPICZalpha only) started to be amplified at over 29 cycles (non specific amplification). This means that the D-NY15 encoding gene is well expressed in Pichia pastoris with pGAP as a promoter. This promoter is therefore very efficient in the Pichia pastoris background.
