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 M9 Medium

M9 salts were added to 1l MilliQ and sterilized by autocrave. M9 medium was stored in a fridge.


Monday, August 23 By: Tasuku, Takuya O.

Make Supplemented M9 Medium

We tried to dissolve CaCl2 0.1M (final concentration) in 1l M9 medium, but we failed because CaCl2 was too much.


Tuesday, August 24 By: Tasuku, Takuya O.

Make Supplemented M9 Medium

M9 salts were added to 1l MilliQ and sterilized by autocrave. We changed amount of CaCl2 from 0.1M (final concentration) to 0.01mM (final concentration), and we could make supplemented M9 medium.

Overnight culture

The ML, i.e., E.coli KRX transformed with <partinfo>K358000</partinfo> was grown in the supplemented M9 medium including 1mM IPTG for a night (16h).


Wednesday, August 25 By: Tasuku, Takuya O.

Culture

OD600 of the overnight culture was measured. The overnight culture was diluted in fresh supplemented M9 medium including 7 different IPTG concentration and OD600 of each medium was measured every 4 hours. The samples to measure fluorescence of GFP were also collected.

Measure OD600 of the culture of ML and collect samples

Measure OD600 of the culture of ML and collect samples

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).


Tuesday, August 31 By: Tomonori, Tasuku, Kazuya

Measure OD600 of the overnight culture

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

NameOD600
C2 (diluted to 10-3)0.034
C3 (diluted to 10-5)0.062
C4 (diluted to 10-6)0.040

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.

NameOD600
C2 (diluted to 10-3)0.031
C3 (diluted to 10-5)0.042
C4 (diluted to 10-6)0.091
Overnight culture E.coli C2 in new medium

The supllemented M9 medium wighout antibiotics was made again. E.coli C2 (diluted to 10-3) was grown for a night (16 hours).

Measure the fluorescence of GFP of the ML and the MS

The fluorescence of GFP of the ML and the MS was measured (Ex/Em = 485/535 nm, 1sec).

Measure OD600 of the overnight culture of C2

OD600 of the overnight culture of C2 was measured. In this experiment, C2 grew.

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.

Make the supplemented M9 medium without casamino acids

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).
