Description

We designed a new screening systems based on the non-functional pSB1A10 plasmid. We improved its features for ??????in vivo?????? characterization of PoPS-based devices using fluorescent reporters . The plasmid still contains the Pbad arabinose-inducible induction system as a tunable input and eGFP as an internal standard for induction. However, we altered the reporter protein to mCherry. Furthermore we adjusted the BioBrick cloning site to allow cloning of additional parts independent from the Input/Output measurement. This screening plasmid is designed to be used with a second Arabinose inducible promoter BBa_I13453 which is not included in this part.

The improved screening system is optimized for the evaluation of PoPS-based devices in fluorescence measurements. RFP which was known to contain an RNase restriction site was replaced by mCherry which combines good expression yield, short maturation times and an acceptable and well-characterized quantum yield. A unique challenge for the characterization of our switches is the expression of a corresponding signal independent of the input/output measurement. Thus, we moved the BioBrick cloning site resulting in the fluorescent reporter being inside the cloning site and giving the possibility to clone independent parts behind the reporter protein. To fully function our screening plasmid need the arabinose inducible promoter BBa_I13453 in front of the PoPS-based device to screen. Using a second arabinose inducible promoter, we were able to keep eGFP as an internal standard for the tunable input via the Pbad arabinose-inducible induction system. The two identical promoters ensure the same rate of induction for eGFP and the tested PoPS-based device. Thus, obtaining comparable screening results is easy. Unfortunately, this design implicates a minor disadvantage. Two cloning steps are needed to gain an functional construct for testing any PoPS-based device.

Notes

PoPS-based devices can be cloned into plasmid in front of the second reporter gene, whereas another independent sequence, like a signal, can be inserted behind the reporter genes.
