NB: unless differently specified, all tests were performed in E. coli MGZ1 in M9 supplemented medium at 37°C. For the cloning of the parts, E. coli TOP10 was used.

Parts assembly

Characterization of basic modules

Characterization of promoters pTet and pLux

Characterization of enzymes AiiA and LuxI

Characterization of the efficiency of RBSs from the community collection

Identification of bacterial growth parameters

The bacterial growth curve has been modelled as a logistic curve and is represented by the following equation:

dN/dt=N*μ*(Nmax-N)/Nmax
N(0)=n0

where μ represents the growth rate of the cells (E. coli MGZ1 in M9 supplemented medium) and Nmax represents the maximum number of cells in the well. For a detailed description of the parameters, see modelling section. For details on parameters identification, see identification section.

Estimation of the spontaneous degradation of HSL in M9 medium and in cultures at different pH values

Characterization of BBa_T9002 biosensor
