Our overlapping DNA fragments; tat, GFP, RFP and plasmid backbone was cloned together by Gibson Assembly and transformed into E.col strain ER2566 cells. The photograph below shows two of the resulting colonies (named ER1 and ER2) from this transformation.

Figure: Two of the transformed colonies with the tat_GFP_l_RFP construct. Hereby named ER1 and ER2.
The plasmid from the ER1 samples was isolated by the Promega Wizard Plus SV Minipreps DNA Purification System A1460 and sequenced. Figure below shows the alignment of the sequencing results with the reference DNA sequence.

Figure: Aligment of tat_GFP_l_RFP (ER1) with reference DNA.
The sequence align almost perfectly. There seems to be some sort of extra insert at the linker region, but this insert is dividable by 3, so the reading frame is maintained. This is supported by the fact that the colonies with this construct is red (see figure above). Sequencing confirms that we have succesfully made our tat_GFP_RFP construct.
Red ER1-cells in liquid media was immobilized in agar and then viewed in a confocal microscope for seeing if RFP was localized in the periplasm. The results can be seen in the two figures below:

The Pm/xylS promoter was modified (removing an XbaI site) and turned into a BioBrick by adding the prefix and suffix. With 3A assembly, the promoter was attached to a GFP generator (BBa_E0240), and a backbone ( pSB3K3). The results show that the GFP are expressed in the samples with the Pm/xylS promoter, indicating that the promoter works. The figures below show the result from the testing. As expected, the reference promoter has a high rate of GFP synthesis.
