This week the project "DelRest" was launched, which aims at creating a single, 32 kb plasmid enabling the expression of most genes from the <i>D. Acidovorans </i> Del cluster, namely DelA-G and DelL-P (note: the 18 kbp gene encoding DelH is cloned onto a seperate plasmid). Due to the shere size and complexity of the DelRest construct, we decided to use Gibson cloning.

This weeks goal was amplify the pSB4K5 backbone from the partsregistry with primers giving the intended overlaps as well as the desired genes from our host organism <i>D. Acidovorans </i>.

Therefore, Gibson primers for the amplification of the target backbone pSB4K5 were designed, which also introduce a Gibson-overlap to DelA, the first gene present in the Del cluster. Furthermore Gibson primers for amplifying the fragments DelA-G and DelO-P were ordered. The last Gibson primer pair used to amplify DelL consequently carries the required overlap to the beginning of the mRFP reporter present the pSB4K5 insert part BBa_J04450. Check out our vectormap if you are curious about the detailed cloning strategy and primer design.

In the previous week, several of the newly ordered primer pairs improved our PCRs for DelO-P and DelF-G. However, results were not convincing enough to use these amplicons for Gibson assembly. Therefore, we spend this week optimizing the PCRs for the abovementioned fragments. In addition we validated the amplicon of DelG with restriction digest. Validation of the other PCR products did not succeed, mostly due to very low amount of DNA.

We send one of our DelRest constructs that showed the right restriction pattern in the test digest for sequencing. As it would be quite costly to sequence the whole 32 kb plasmid, we focused on the ligation sites between the different assembly fragments, which are most prone to insertion of errors. Although all insert fragments sequenced, including the ligation sites between DelA and DelF, DelO-P and DelL, were 100 % correct, wee detected a mutation within the mRFP cds (note: we wanted to use mRFP in order to confirm expression from our DelRest plasmid). FACS analysis of <i> E. coli </i>  bearing the DelRest construnct confirmed that mRFP expression was impaired, likely due to the corresponding mutation. However, as mRFP was only meant to be a general expression control on our construct, we did not start correcting out construct by mutagenesis. Instead, we started preparing samples for an SDS page in order to directly proof the expression of the Del genes by Coomassie staining.

As the Coomassie staining we carried out last week did not display all expected bands clearly, likely the low amount of protein loaded onto the corresponding SDS page, the SDS page was repeated.

This expression analysis confirmed the results indicated by the previous SDS-page. We were able to show that DelE and DelG are expressed at a detectable level.

As we could confirm the successful cloning and functioning of the DelRest expression plasmid named pFSN (for Florian-Sophie-Nils :)) the DelRest subproject was succssfully completed and the personal resources of the DelRest group were shifted to the DelH group as well as the wiki.
