Data For Pre-existing Parts:


[http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_M30109:Experience BBa_M30109 Experience:]

  • BBa_M30109 seems not as available as mentioned on the website. We tried PCR and extraction of plasmids successively but both of them failed. It might be the size that resulted in the instability of those test procedures since BBa_M30109 has an astonishing size of 4333bp: with such a giant fragment it may lead to multiple mistakes in replication.


[http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_R0051:Experience BBa_R0051 Experience:]

  • BBa_R0051 does not work well due to its rather small size. We transformed it for three times, and none of them succeed. We designed primers to PCR it out from K091230 successfully, but failed to perform the digestion since it is too small to extract from gel. It may work better if adding some nonsense sequence before the promoter.


[http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_J5526:Experience BBa_J5526 Experience:]

  • We tried to transform BBa_J5526 several times. It grows well, but never turns red.


[http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_S03419:Experience BBa_S03419 Experience:]

  • BBa_S03419 is available and the sequence is proved to be correct.


[http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_B0015:Experience BBa_B0015 Experience:]

  • BBa_B0015 is available and the sequence is proved to be correct.


[http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_K081024:Experience BBa_K081024 Experience:]

  • BBa_K081024 is available and the sequence is proved to be correct.


[http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_I13507:Experience BBa_I13507 Experience:]

  • BBa_I13507 is available and the sequence is proved to be correct.


[http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_I15008:Experience BBa_I15008 Experience:]

  • Unfortunately, the inversion of BBa_I15008 succeeded but we lost the correct seed due to an accident.


[http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_J13002:Experience BBa_J13002 Experience:]

  • Both PCR and Extraction of plasmids suggest a correct size of J13002, but we failed to get the available and reliable sequencing report. So we cannot confirm that J13002 is sequencing-correct or not.


[http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_R0010:Experience BBa_R0010 Experience:]

  • Sadly, problems came to our experiments when we tried to recover the BBa_R0010’s seed conserved by ourselves. The seed we conserved on that day was somehow polluted so that we failed to extract the correct and available plasmids. But the sequencing report was once proved to be correct.


[http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_R0082:Experience BBa_R0082 Experience:] (together with BBa_R0083 and BBa_R0084)

  • Both PCR and Extraction of plasmids suggest a correct size of those 3 promoters once, but we failed to get the available and reliable sequencing report since the seeds seem to be unstable and the size of them is too small.

Division Inhibition


The antisense FtsZ, protected by hair-pin structure and termed TBY or BBa_897720, is regulated by T7 promoter and regarded as the core part of our project. The antisense FtsZ sequence mainly aims at silenting the FtsZ gene and control the self-renewal and differentiation of E.coli. Since the antisense FtsZ gene in BBa_897720 is regulated by the T7 promoter that is specifically combined with T7 RNA polymerase, a endogenous protein in BL21(DE3) strain under the control of the lac UV5 promoter inducible by IPTG, the number of colonies is expected to decrease with the an increase in IPTG. The confirmatory experiment below verifys the validity of TBY and our hypothesis.

After integrating the plasmid with an insert of BBa_897720 into BL21(DE3) strain, we cultivated those bacteria on the surface of solid LB medium in 4 dfferent IPTG levels. The conditions was strictly controlled at the temperature of 37 ℃ and it last for 10 hours. The controls aims to rule out the possibility of damaged to the bacteria from IPTG. Details are illustrated below:

IPTG(0.0mM) IPTG(0.5mM) IPTG(1.0mM) IPTG(2.0mM)
TBY *0.01 SeuoTby.JPG
TBY *0.1
TBY- *0.1
TBY- *0.01
  • TBY represents the BL21(DE3) bacteria carring plasmids with an insert of BBa_K897720. TBY- means that the BL21(DE3) bacteria carried the plasmids as same as the plasmids of TBY but without the insert of BBa_K8977720.
  • TBY(-) are diluted tenfold and hundredfold separately, marked as “*0.1” and “*0.01”.
  • The number in the parenthesis following the “IPTG” means the concentration of IPTG.
  • For original full-size picture, see here.

In order to analyse the repressible effect of FtsZ, we calculate the colony coverage of every sample. Details are illustrated in the Model Part, and the results of analysis are shown below.

IPTG(0.0mM) IPTG(0.5mM) IPTG(1.0mM) IPTG(2.0mM)

  • Percentage of colony coverage

  • FtsZ repressible effect


Both of the red line and the blue line in the illustration show that the colony coverage decreases while the level of IPTG increases, which suggests that the growth of colony is somehow repressed. Moreover, the yellow line reveals that the IPTG has little side effect on colony. As a result, FtsZ truly represses the growth of bacteria and also provide experimental evidence for our project scheme.


For the efficiency of paired termini structure, we have done some additional experiments. Detailed results can be seen here.

Light Sensor


RED LIGHT


Scheme A

The experiments of light sensor part starts from BBa_M30109, the devised composite that can produce Cph8 and ho1 & pcyA,the enzymes required by convertion of Haem into PCB.The OmpC promoter is also involved in this composite. However, BBa_M30109 is not as available as mentioned on the website. The PCR failed to amplificate the fragment of BBa_M30109. It might be the giant size of this part results in the failure of PCR.Besides the plasmids extracted from the E.coli bacteria can hardly be told from the electrophoretogram (Fig.1). As a result, we decided to choose "scheme B".

M30109 revised .JPG


Scheme B

We deside to constructe two composites that can produce Cph8, termed c-Cph8 and enzymes we need, named c-PCB, seperately.

C-Cph8 basically contains BBa_R0010, BBa_S03419 and BBa_B0015. The combination of BBa_S03419 and BBa_B0015 first succeeded at the beginning of August. The sequence report suggest the correct sequencing information of both BBa_S03419 and BBa_B0015. Sadly, problems came to our experiments when we tried to recover the BBa_R0010’s seed conserved by ourselves. The seed we conserved on that day was somehow polluted so that we failed to extract the correct and available plasmids. So we just finished the construction of BBa_S03419 and BBa_B0015, termed BBa_S05053, which contained an RBS, BBa_I15008 and the terminator BBa_B0015.

C-PCB is expected to produce the two vital enzymes, ho1 and pcyA that catalyze the procedure of conversion of haem into PCB. We planned to combine BBa_J13002, BBa_I15008, BBa_K081024 and a reporter protein(mRFP) together. When we finished the combination of BBa_K081024 and BBa_I13507(mRFP), we were astonished to find out mRFP was expressed without Cph8. Meanwhile, the combination of BBa_I15008 and BBa_J13002 failed. The good news is that the sequencing report confirmed the sequences of BBa_13002, BBa_K081024 and BBa_I13507 were seperately right. Unfortunately, the inversion of BBa_I15008 succeeded but we lost the correct seed due to an accident. As a result, we finished the combination of BBa_K081024 and BBa_I13507, termed BBa_S05054 automatically by partsregistry.org.

Discussion

The expression of mRFP in Scheme B suggest that the OmpC in BBa_K081024 was somehow activated. Further work was conducted to figure out why the OmpC seemed to present a function of a continuous promoter. After blasting the sequence of Cph1 at NIBC (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov), we discovered that the BL21(DE3) strain has endogenous EnvZ, which is the key part of Cph1that can phosphorylate the OmpR and cause the activation of OmpC followed by the expression of downstream genes, BBa_I13507. Hence, once the strain has endogenous EnvZ, BBa_K081024 & BBa_I13507, also known as BBa_S05054 expresses mRFP without Cph8 not to mention the regulation of red light.

Now it is confirmed that as long as equipped with a promoter,RBS and BBa_I15008, the OmpC promoter in BBa_S05054 can work normally in a endogenous-EnvZ-free system. Besides, BBa_S05054 can also be utilized to test the exisitence of endogenous EnvZ.


BLUE LIGHT

Blue light system is much simple compared with red light system, since it involves just one kit, BBa_K238013. It eventually failed in the procedures of combination with other part of our project.



Toggle switch


The toggle switch part of experiment is not very successful.

We have constructed the lac-cI part of the toggle switch, but the pcI-lacI part is failed. The most problem happened around the cI promoter, R0051, which is only 49bp in length. After the failure of several transformation and depletion of the distributed kit, we try to PCR this part out from K091230, a cI promoted mRFP reporter.

Though the PCR works well and we actually get the target fragment, we failed to perform follow experiment because we cannot extract DNA from the enzyme digestion product since the 49bp size is beyond the ability of our Gel Extraction Kit.

After that, we tried to add some nonsense sequence before K091230, and PCR the sequence and R0051 out, but finally did not make it before the deadline.
