Culture

We stopped overnight cultures at 11:10 and took out 30µL culture from each test tube, and added it to 3mL fresh medium which is same for overnight culture. They are grown at 37℃ from 11:10-14:10. After 3-hours culture, OD600 of each culture were measured. Because we found that the 3-hours culture of the sample KRX had not grown, we use the overnight culture of the sample KRX in later procedures. We took out 1mL medium from test tubes and put them into 1.5mL tubes and freeze them. The data is shown in table below.

Measure

We melt samples and centrifuge them at 14,000rpm, at 4℃, for 2min. Discard the supernatant and 150µL cel lysis reagent to each pellet. These pellets were dissolved by vortex for 2min and centrifuged for 2min. From each tubes, 100µL of the supernatant was took out and added to each well of the plate for the plate reader. 100µL cell lysis reagent was also added to them. We measured GFP fluorescence in each sample (Ex/Em = 485/535nm, 1sec). The data is shown in table below. We calculated the promoter activity and the results are shown in table below.

Make the plate of E.coli C2=

The E.coli competent cell, C2, was diluted to three different concentration, that is 10^-3, 10^-5, 10<sup-6</sup>. The 200µL of each culture was plated without antibiotics.

Monday, August 30 By: Tomonori, Tasuku

Overnight culture

A colony of each plate made on Friday was picked out and put into the test tube including 5mL supplemented M9 medium without antibiotics. They were grown at 37℃ for a night (16 hours).

Measure OD600 of the overnight culture

OD600 of the overnight culture was measured. We found that E.coli C2 had not grown.

C2 (diluted to 10-3)	0.034
C3 (diluted to 10-5)	0.062

Because we noticed that the color of the three overnight cultures were strange, we suspected that other bacterium had grwon in these culture.

Culture E.coli C2 wighout antibiotics again

A colony of paltes were picked out and put into the test tube including 5mL supplemented M9 medium wighout antibiotics. They were grown at 37℃ for 11 hours. OD600 of the culture was measured. As the previous experiment, C2 did not grow.

• Back corrected

We did not calculate RPU from these data because GFP fluorescence at 3.5h was lower than that at 3h in most of the samples, and we couldn't calculate GFP synthesis rate. We think this is because GFP synthesized in overnight culture with IPTG 1mM had stayed more at 3h than 3.5h.

We think that lactose in the supplemented M9 medium come from casamino acids, so we decide to measure RPU of the lactose promoter without casamino acids because lactose in medium induces the lactose promoter.

We found that cell growth rate was low without casamino acids and that OD600 of the culture at 3h was low, therefore we decide to measure OD600 at 4h, 4.5h, 5h, 5.5h and 6h, and to collect samples at 5h and 5.5h in later experiment without casamino acids.

Back corrected We can't use the data of IPTG 0mM to calculate RPU because GFP fluorescence at 3.5h is lower than that at 3h. Also we can't use the data of ML-B 0.01mM IPTG and the data of MS-A of 0.03mM. Although GFP fluorescence of 0.1mM (20 September) at 3.5h is higher than that at 3h, OD600 is so low. Accordingly, We can't use the data of 0.1mM (20 September).

Overnight culture for the measurement of lactose promoter

Three tubes of the ML, three tubes of the MS and three tubes of the MB were grown with casamino acids including 0.1mM ITPG and 0.01mM IPTG for 16hours.

In addition, the supplemented M9 medium used in the experiment includes 0.01mM lactose. The RPU of the lactose promoter induced by IPTG only must be lower than the data resulted from this experiment.
