Fig.2: The NOT GATE


Usage and Biology

2 Trancription Units

This way we take signal in the Absence of SCFAs


Design Notes

The coding sequence was domesticated . We removed BsmBI ,BsaI , BtgZI, BpiI sites in order to be compatible with GoldenBraid and MoClo. The sequence is present in BBa_K3505010 and has overhangs compatible for Golden Braid cloning.



Verification of cloning

Experimental Use and Experience

Fig.6:. Cell growth in the presence or absence of 2mM propionate.

Conculusion

There is a slight increase in fluorescence in absence of SCFAs - acetate and propionate - as expected. We hypothesize that the gap will be bigger when adding butyrate, which is the main inducer for pFliC, and which we didn’t have in the lab as per Wiki Freeze date. As far as the cell growth goes, we expected a reduction of the cells, since we add acids that are toxic to the cells. These results indicate that our NOT-Gate system works, regarding these acids but in an expected range.
