LuxRに変異を入れることでLuxRのAHLに対する感受性を変えることができると報告されている。(1),(2)


  1. Ile45PheとするとAHLに対する感受性が約10倍上昇する(1)
  2. Leu42AlaとするとAHLに対する感受性が1/15に減少する(2)
  3. Leu42SerとするとAHLに対する感受性が1/1000に減少する(2)


Experiment

  • Sender
  • Receivers

Method

  1. Transformed sender (Ptet-luxI), mutant LuxR Receiver (Ptet-mLuxR-Plux-GFP) and WT LuxR Receiver ()into E coli strains (BW⊿FliC)
  2. Inoculated Sender, WT Receiver (wild type luxR/BW⊿FliC) and mutated Receiver (1point mutation/BW⊿FliC) in liquid media for 12 h at 37℃.
  3. Inoculated again in liquid media upto about OD600=2 at 37℃
  4. Washed Senders and receiver.
  5. Mixed them. (Sender:Receiver=1000μL:1000μL)
  6. Incubated at 30°C.
  7. Measured intensity of green fluorescence at regular time intervals.
