Purifying the promoter region of the blue light receptor from E. Coli. This region needs to bee ‘cleaned’ and possible restriction sites mutated out. After a biobrick can be made.

1.PCR reaction to purify suspected promoter region.

-
Probably has a promoter, RBS and SpeI restriction site.

-
2.PCR fragment coupled to GFP

-
Measuring reactivity of the promoter

-
3.“cleaning”  region to only get promoter 
+
-
Cutting in different pieces and measuring the GFP activity
+
-
    a. Same reverse primer, shortening through forward primer.
+
-
    b. Once there is no activity anymore with forward primer, keep it constant and shorten reverse inkorten
+
-
    c. Once promoter found: updating those primers with a pre en suffix to make a biobrick out of the promoter

4.Mutating  SpeI site  out ( 178 - 183) via PCR mutagenesis
