RBS efficiency

We used the following biobrick to test the efficiency of different ribosome binding sites:

  1. Pcons+BBa_B0034+mRFP+Ter
  2. Pcons+[http://parts.igem.org/wiki/index.php?title=Part:BBa_K1017202 BBa_K1017202]+mRFP+Ter
  3. Pcons+BBa_B0030+mRFP+Ter
  4. Pcons+BBa_B0032+mRFP+Ter
  5. control:pet40

The control is pet40 and the reporter gene is mRFP, Figure 1 and Figure 2 show the difference of color.

(undetermined)

Fig 1. From left to right, the ribosome biding site respectively is: B0032, Target 1, B0030, B0034, control.
Fig 2. From left to right, the ribosome biding site respectively is: B0034, Target 1, B0030, B0032, control.

37 degrees Celsius RBS

Using biobrick, Pcons+37°C RBS+mGFP+J61048, we tested the function of the 37°C RBS under different temperatures.

Fig 3. 37°C RBS efficiency under different temperatures.

As shown on Fig 3. the expression of mGFP under 37°C and 42°C reached a higher OD value in less time than the expression below 37°C. This demonstrates the fact that 37°C RBS functions more efficiently above or at 37°C. On the other hand, the fact that 37°C RBS leads to moderate expression even under 37°C degree might be a problem, since then we cannot make sure that only single gene is expressed under 37°C.
