Module Integration
In order for us to achieve our goal of having a relay race between GFP and RFP teams,
various parts from the the three modules must be integrated together into a single working system. What follows is a description of the requirements for the integrated system.
Signal Plasmid
The signal plasmid will contain the following features:
- oriTR - to allow transfer during conjugation
- constitutively expressed trbK - to block back propagation of the signal, to reduce redundant transfer, and to prevent lethal zygosis
- constitutively expressed trbC - if lethal zygosis turn out to be a problem
- constitutively expressed GFP for the green team and RFP for the red team
- delay device
- input: the delay is triggered by the presence of the helper plasmid
- output: expression of the I-SceI homing endonuclease
- cut sites for the I-SceI homing endonuclease
- a low copy backbone to allow the endonuclease to destroy the signal plasmid
Helper Plasmid
This will consist of a modified R751 plasmid with the following features:
- trbK knockout to allow cells containing the helper plasmid to conjugate
- oriTR knockout to prevent transfer of the helper plasmid during conjugation
- trbC knockout to prevent lethal zygosis
- constitutively expressed trigger for the delay device
