Miscellaneous

RBS ((Elowitz 1999) -- defines RBS efficiency)

iGEM Groningen 2009

The ligation of a part behind the RBS succeded, and was confirmed by gel (correct vector size) and sequencing with VF2. We used this part in combination with several genes for building our biobricks e.g. .

Double terminator (B0012-B0011)
Double terminator consisting of BBa_B0012 and BBa_B0011

GVP Gas Vesicle Proteins
This parts creates gas vesicles inside the cell wich enables it to float. It consist of 6064 base pairs. It's backbone is

ccdB cell death gene
P1010 is used when putting BioBrick parts into BioBrick plasmids. The part to be inserted and the plasmid are cut with BioBrick enzymes and mixed. The mixture will include both the original uncut or religated plasmid and the desired structure. However, because of CcdB, all of the cells containing the original plasmid die and the surviving colonies are the desired result.

iGEM Groningen 2009

The ccdB cell death gene worked as expected killing our E. coli TOP10 cells, and keeping our E. coli DB3 cells alive. After noticing the inconsistent sequencing result for the pSB2K3 plasmid with ccdB cell death gene, we decided to choose a different pSB2K3 plasmid with random part to continue with our assemblies. This to minimize the chance of unwanted surprises in the end.

Promoter (lacI regulated)
This part is an inverting regulator sensitive to LacI and CAP. It contains two protein binding sites. The first binds the CAP protein, which is generally present in E.coli and is asocciated with cell health and availability of glucose. The second binds LacI protein.

Vectors

High copy BioBrick assembly plasmid
pSB1AC3 is a high copy number plasmid carrying ampicillin and chloramphenicol resistance. Together with pSB1A2 the vector was used for most assemblies of our team, because the high copy number made it easy to work with and easy isolation.

iGEM Groningen 2009

The transformations with pSB1AC3 (containing different biobricks of own design) into E. coli TOP10 cells, growth on both antibiotics, and gel analysis (undigested and digested with the EcoRI and PstI) worked as expected. The high (copy) number of plasmids per cell make it an easy to work with plasmid, ideal for cloning and assembly work.

pSB1A2 (Replaced by pSB1A3 in registry)
pSB1A2 is a high copy number plasmid carrying ampicillin resistance. Together with pSB1AC3 the vector was used for most assemblies of our team, because the high copy number made it easy to work with and easy isolation.
