Characterization
The plot shows that we still have trouble with the media... Only LB did show a "responsive pattern". All our synthetic media had a flat linear increase in fluoresence over time, for an unknown reason.
-> Maybe it is that there are all minimal and that the cells need more than 2h to make protein synthesis
For this test we actually did a mistake while picking the clones for the culture and we picked 3 out of which 2 didn't have the construct -confirmed by colony PCR- (therefore only the RBS-RFP-term).
-> only the 2 "wrong" clones showed a response! The one that actually had the readout 2 construct had the same fluorescent pattern as all the synthetic media pattern.
The 2 "wrong" clones had the following graph:
- without Trp: net linear increase of fluorescence for 1h30 then sudden change and the fluorescent slope went flat for the last 30 min.
- with trp: linear increase of fluorescence for the 2h.
The difference is then after the 1h30 where the ones induced with trp still had an increase in fluorescence while the other had not.
