Nowadays, the focus in metabolic engineering research is shifting from massive overexpression and inactivation of genes towards the model-based fine tuning of gene expression. This year team SKLMT-China wants to deal with the environmental problem using a new extraordinary chassis bacteria,
Promoter llibrary construction
From the very beginning of our project, we have to find the sequence of proper constitutive. All the promoter sequence(70bp) is taken from the upstream region of a coding sequence (exactly upstream of its ATG base).And then, construct plasmid containing a promoter sequence and the reporter gene.
In order to obtain an artificially built promoter library suitable for cloning, promoter sequence was added a chloramphenicol selection marker. The linear DNA fragment is prepared through serious PCR, by which the chloramphenicol combined with 70bp standard promoter sequence is flanking with homology arms of the vector. We constructed the plasmids by LCHR.
The strength of different promoter was characterized by a reporter gene,
Since predecessors have less research on the promoter collection and characterization of
Nicotine degradation
In addition to the formation of the promoter library, we also constructed a nicotine-degrading engineered bacteria using pf-5 as the chassis.
We completed the whole molecular clone process by Red/ET homologous reconbination technology. First of all, digeste the genome of
Second, in order to get this plasmid replicated in
Next, we’ve found there is a part of chlorampheol
Next, we’ve found there is a part of chlorampheol
Finally, we got our promoter4,5and11 segments through PCR using PAGE-purified oligonucleotides containing 40-nt homology arms flanking the target pSB1C3-promoter-cm plasmids and 19-nt standard PCR primers at 3’end. At last, we transferred these three promoter segments into
