- | ==Dose-Dependent Migration Ability of Aptamer-cheZ Device==
| |
- |
| |
- | <p> To test the migration ability, selective media (tryptone broth with different ratio of agar(0.25%, 0.3%, 0.4%), 50μg/mL ampicllin, and various concentrations of theophylline(0mM, 0.25mM, 0.5mM, 0.5mM, 0.75mM, 1mM)) was prepared in Petri dishes(85mm dia). Diluted cell suspensions from mid-log-phase cultures were applied to the center of the plates, which were dried at room temperature at for 15 min, and incubated at 37°C for 10h, and the migration radii were determined by measuring the diameter of the outermost ring of growth. </p>

| |
- | <p> The results(Figure2.) show that the Aptamer-cheZ Device is functional, and the 0.3%agar is the best ratio for the migration experiments.</p>

- | ==Toggle Switch Device Testing and Modifying==
| |
- |
| |
- | <p> First, test the function of the original Toggle Switch Device from PKU. After the transformation, the ratio between the colonies with red fluorescent and the colonies with green fluorescent is 8:25. </p>
| |
- | <p> Then, modify the prototype of the Toggle Switch Device from PKU. The cI gene was subcloned into the SpeI and PstI sites of pSB3t5, a low copy plasmid, containing the LuxPR promoter to create LuxPR-cI Device. After the transformation, prepare the ''E.coli'' RP1616 competence containing the LuxPR-cI Device, then use the original Toggle Switch Device to transform this competence.</p>
| |
- | <p> After the transformation, the ratio between the colonies with red fluorescent and the colonies with green fluorescent is 6:1.</p>

| |
- | ==Semi-Solid Media with the Gadient of Theophylline==
| |
- |
| |
- | <p> Media was prepared in 100mm square Petri dishes. Layers(15ml) of selective 0.3% agar containing theophylline(1mM, 0.25mM, 0mM) were poured in the pattern shown in Figure 3.</p>
| |

| |
- | <p> Each layer would solidify for 50 min before applying the following layer. After all layers were applied, the media should equilibrate at room temperature for 3.0 h.</p>
