Abstract

LuxR is AHL-dependent activator.LuxR-AHL complex binds lux box, 20-bp sequence centered at position -42.5 from starting site and activates transcription.However lux box is inserted between -35 and -10,LuxR functions as AHL-inverter (Plux inv). Plux inv is resistered in Biobrick number R0061.We've prepared Plux inv-GFP and characterized about it.


Experiments

1.Construction Plux inv-GFP

Construction process is shown in Fig. 1.We constructed Plux inv-GFP conbining R0061 and E0240 and transformed by strain of XL10-G.

GFP fluorescence and sequence is confirmed.

2.Characterization Plux inv-GFP

strain:DH10B sample 1,Plux inv-GFP and Plac-LuxR
2,Plux inv-GFP (Positive control)
3,Plux inv (Negative control)
add AHL1000 nM (AHL+)and

Each sample incubated for 12 h at 37゜C Spin-dawn and observed the pellet.

Fig. 2 characterization of Plux inv-GFP




Results

Pellet Photos is shown in Fig. 3.We confirmed GFP fluorescence both AHL+ and AHL-.So We're not able to confirm LuxR repression.

Discussion

We're not able to confirm LuxR repression.
iGEMTokyo_tech2010 also charcterize about Plux inv and measure LuxR repression.

Because it does not completely repress transcription, Plasmids, strains ,culture conditions,detection method LuxR suppression can not be confirmed(Cox et al,2007).
