Collins switch was always tested @ 37C.The switch on pTS241 is (supposed to be) turned off @ 40C.The switch on pTS265 is (supposed to be) turned off @ 37C.Bacterial mCherry and GFP were both used as reporters.

Plated- and UV-treated cells were allowed to grow to confluence, which took two nights @ 30C.Results
Inconclusive: There was no visible difference between UV-treated and untreated cells.

A FACS Analyzer to Quantify A FACS Analyzer to Quantify ResultsResultsA FACS analyzer will permit rapid and high-resolution
quantification of results.
Experiment planned for FACS analyzer @ Dana Farber

Cloning the Double-ReporterCloning the Double-ReporterpTSGC
GFP is repressed by LacI (and turned ON by IPTG/heat)mCherry is repressed by CI (and turned ON by UV)
Sequencing for P(trc)-GFP plasmid is pending.PCR has been successful in preparing P(L*)-mCherry for insertion into the already-made P(trc)-GFP plasmid.

This week with CollinsModThis week with CollinsModAssaying GFP expression with a FACS analyzer
Current plan: Stagger several experiments so that the following parameters can be examined in parallel:
IPTG treatment (16h and 2 days later)Heat treatment (16h and 2 days later)UV treatment (4h and 16h later)
Alternatively: Scale down the parameters for pilot experiment with FACS analyzer
GenotypesCollins switch + GFPGFP (+ve)JM 2.300 (-ve)
ConditionsIPTG treatment (0, 2, 5mM)UV treatment (0, 24, 48J/m2)
