This page creates lists the functional assays that we have done.

Contents

2013-07-29

  • Scale: long term (25ml), samples retrieved from 2 to 6 hours once every 30 minutes.
  • Items: E0240,E0240+H2O2, pLac+E0840, pLac+I13507, pNHaA+E0240, pLac+I13507+H2O2 on pSB1A2 backbone
  • medium: M9 minimal medium
  • Measuring: OD600 measured in a cuvette via spectrometer, fluorescence 485/525 (GFP) and 584/607 (RFP) in ELISA plate reader
  • Result: the strength of NHaA promotor is so weak that we decided to switch our safety biobrick to the next design.

2013-08-02

  • Purpose: Finding the suitable range of H2O2 concentration to test our promoters.
  • Items: pLac+E0840 with 8 different H2O2 concentrations (OmM, 0.05mM, 0.1mM, 0.5mM, 1mM, 5mM, 10mM, 50mM) on pSB1A2 backbone
  • Testing: Both OD600 and fluorescence 485/525 (GFP) both measured using the ELISA plate reader.
  • Results:
    • MG1655 dies above concentrations of 5mM H2O2
    • The data measured before 3 hours seem less reliable.

2013-08-04

  • Purpose: Measure the basal expressions of various promoters using smaller volume but more replicates.
  • Scale: 1 long term (25ml) samples retrieved at 0, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 hours, and 7 short terms (4ml) retrieved at 0 and 4 hours.
  • Items: E0840, R0065+E0840, pLac+E0840, pNHaA+E0840, J23101+E0840, I13507, R0065+I13507, pLac+I13507, pNHaA+E0840, J23101+I13507 all on pSB1A2 backbone
  • Testing: OD600 and fluorescence 490/530, 485/525 and 470/530 (all GFP) in ELISA plate reader
  • Results: only R0065+E0840 ,J23101+E0840, J23101+I13507, pLac+E0840, pLac+I13507 show efficient function. This is an efficient way for creating biological replicates.

2013-08-08

  • Purpose: Finding the impact of high temperature (44C) on the various promoters.
  • Scale: long term, short term
  • Item: E0840, J23101+E0840,R0065+E0840, pLac+E0840
  • Testing: OD600, fluorescence 490/530, 485/525 and 470/530 in ELISA plate reader
  • first temperature testing--suggest that plac is repressed under 44C, R0065 as well
  • Result:
    1. Achieve maximum after 6 hours??
    2. The pLac promoter is highly repressed under 44C compared to at 37C, and R0065 has relatively small repression. As a result, we bagan searching for another repressible promotor in place of pLac.
    3. We finally settled on using the wavelength 485/525 for measuring GFP fluorescence.

  • Scale: long term (25ml) for 8 hours
  • Item: E0840, J23101+e0840, pLac+E0840,HemHp+E0840 with 6 different H2O2 concentrations (0mM, 0.01mM, 0.05mM, 0.1mM, 0.5mM, 1mM) on pSB1A2 backbone
  • Testing: OD600 and fluorescence 485/525 in ELISA plate reader


20130820

  • Scale: 8 short terms (4ml), sample retrieved at 4 hours
  • Item: E0840, J23101+E0840, R0065+E0840, TrxC+E0840 with 7 different H2O2 concentration (0mM, 0.01mM, 0.05mM, 0.1mM, 0.5mM, 1mM, 5mM) on pSB1A2 backbone
  • Testing: OD600 and fluorescence 485/525 in ELISA plate reader
  • We started washing with PBS instead of M9 medium.
  • Result: the strength of TrxC promotor enhance as H2O2 concentration rises until it reach 1 mM, and the E. coli K-12 MG1655 dies at 5 mM.

20130825

  • Purpose: Finding the photometric and fluorometric value of the medium as background
  • Item: M9 medium and PBS medium

20130826

  • Item: J23101+E0840, R0051+ E0840, TrxCp+E0840, Hemhp+E0840 with 7 different H2O2 concentrations (0mM, 0.01mM, 0.05mM, 0.1mM, 0.5mM, 1mM, 5mM) on pSB1A2 backbone

20130830

  • Item: E0840, J23101+E0840, J23102+E0840, R0082+E0840
  • Result: When J23101 is standardized as 1, the strength of J23102 is 1.12, and R0082 is 1.25. Since R0082 is positively regulated
  • J23102 is 1.12x stronger than J23101, R0082 is 1.25x stronger than J23101. R0082 is too leaky so we chose not to use it anymore.
