We received the E. coli BAP1-strain which is commonly used for heterologuos expression of NRPS. It carries sfp, a
4'-Phosphopanthetheinyl-Transferase from Bacillus subtilis to be able to activate NRPS PCP-domains (i.e. T-
Domains)[Pfeifer 2001]. Transformation with pMM64 (bpsA) should result in indigoidine production since sfp was
previously shown to activate indigoidine synthetases [Yu 2013].
Indigoidine production with pMM-plasmids III (Ilia)
- co-transform BAP1 with 84.5 ng pMM64 and 225 ng pMM65, plate on Amp + Kan + IPTG
plate
- inoculate 4 ml LB + Amp with BAP1-pMM64, grow at 37°C
File:PMM64-pMM65 digest 2013-06-12.png
Gel electrophoresis of the pMM64-pMM65 digestion. Lane 1: NEB 2-log ladder; lane 2: Undigested pMM64; lane 3: Digestion of pMM64 with EcoRI+NotI; lane 4: Digestion of pMM65 with Pst+XhoI
- only white colonies on Amp + Kan + IPTG plate
- make miniPrep of BAP1-pMM64 ON culture -> 19 ng / µl
- digest 190 ng pMM64 with EcoRI+NotI (10 µl of miniPrep, 30 µl total volume), digest 450 ng pMM65 with PstI+XhoI
(30 µl total volume) => expect: 2 bands at 3.5 and 4 kb for pMM64, bands at 3.3 and 0.8 kb for pMM65
- pMM64 shows fragments at 4 kb and 5 kb => wrong plasmid
- pMM64 shows one weak band at 4 kb => might be right, but NanoDrop concentration measurement wrong
- add 30 µl H2O to original Fussenegger filter paper of pMM64
- transform BAP1 with 2 µl pMM64 from original filter paper, plate on Amp + IPTG, grow
at 37°C
- transform TOP10 with 2 µl pMM64 from original filter paper, plate on Amp, grow at
37°C

Gel electrophoresis of the pMM64 digestion. Lane 1: NEB 2-log ladder; lane 2: Undigested pMM64; lane 3: Digestion of pMM64 with EcoRI+NotI
- White BAP1-pMM64 colonies
- inoculate 4 ml LB + Amp with TOP10-pMM64 from plate
- miniPrep: 15.2 ng / µl in 27.5 µl
- digest 152 ng pMM64 (10 µl of miniPrep) with EcoRI+NotI (total volume 30 µl)
- 2 bands at 4.5 and 6 kb => wrong plasmid

Gel electrophoresis of the pMM64-pMM65 digestion. Lane 1: NEB 2-log ladder; lane 2: Digestion of pMM64 with EcoRI+HindIII; lane 3: Digestion of pMM65 with EcoRI+HindIII
- inoculate 4 ml LB + Amp with TOP10-pMM64 from plate
- miniPrep: 14.6 ng / µl in 27.5 µl
- digest 175.2 ng (12 µl from miniPrep) pMM64 with EcoRI+HindIII (30 µl total volume, NEB buffer 2 + BSA)
- digest 7 µl pMM65 with EcoRI+HindIII (30 µl total volume, NEB buffer 2 + BSA)
- pMM64: 2 bands at 4.5 and 6 kb => wrong plasmid
- pMM65: 1 band at 4 kb => might be right
- add 30 µl H2O to original Fussenegger filter paper of pMM65
- transform TOP10 with 10 µl pMM65 from original filter paper, plate on Kan, grow at
37°C
- inoculate 5 ml LB + Kan with TOP10-pMM65
- miniPrep of pMM65 -> 23 ng / µl
- prepare TOP10-pMM65 glycerol stock
