Effect of AHL


Fig. 1 Effect of AHL on hybrid promoter Enhanced fluorescence intensity represents up-regulation of LuxR via AHL.

Objective By testing how AHL activates lux-lac hybrid promoter, parameters(n2,K2) should be determined.

Result & Conclusion
GFP fluorescence increased in AHL-dose dependent manner, indicating that the hybrid promoter is enhanced by LuxR via AHL. Taken together with the graph shown in Fig.1 and formulation of Hill function fitting described above , the characteristics of the hybrid promoter expressed in Hill function, such as (n2,K2), are determined.

Effect of LacI: IPTG assay

Fig. 2 Effect of LacI on hybrid promoter Enhanced fluorescence intensity represents down-regulation of LacI repression via IPTG.

Objective By testing how LacI represses the lux-lac hybrid promoter, parameters(n3,K3) should be decided. In order to adjust effective concentration of LacI, IPTG was added.

Result & Conclusion GFP fluorescence intensity was enhanced in an IPTG-dose dependent manner. It indicates that the LacI repression was getting weak by adding IPTG. Taken together with the graph shown in Fig. 2 and the formulation of Hill function fitting described above, the characteristics of the hybrid promoter expressed in Hill function was determined.
