Results

We managed to Characterize the tRNA biobrick by taking pictures of two constructs.

GFP amber

One of our strains contains only GFP amber, without the tTRNA corresponding. Cells do not glow. this result is a reliable negative control.

GFP amber+tRNA amber

The second strain contains the full construct and the production of tRNA is ruled by PHyperspank which is activated by IPTG. In order to make a negative control we plated them without iptg. Cells glows a bit. Moreover some of the cells strongly leak.

GFP amber + tRNA amber + IPTG

The last result is given by testing the full construct with IPTG induced cells. Each cell glows in an almost equivalent way. The luminance is significant.
