| − | <p class="text">We genetically engineered two prisoner <i>coli</i>, Prisoner A and Prisoner B. They are able to cooperate or to defect. The genetic circuits, with the improved CmR part, of Prisoner A and B are shown in Fig. 3-3-1-1. Our goal in this project is to realize the payoff matrix (Fig. 3-3-1-2.) with the four types of growth inhibition. Using the improved plasmids we constructed, our E.<i>coli</i> version payoff matrix is realized through wet experiments. </p>

| − | <p class="text2">We confirmed the function of C4HSL-dependent CmR expression by measuring the optical density of the cultures containing chloramphenicol (Cm) (Fig. 3-1-2-1.). In this experiment we prepared four cells which contain different sets of plasmids, (1), (2), (3), and (4) (Fig. 3-1-2-2.). C4HSL and chloramphenicol was added into the medium containing the cells. The optical density was measured every hour for eight hours to estimate the concentration of the cell. (1), and (2) are the cooperating and defecting prisoner <i>coli</i> A, respectively. (3), and (4) are the negative control for (1), and (2), respectively.</p>

| |
| − | <p class="text2">At the first stage of wet experiment, Prisoner cell A and B, which are the initially designed circuits showed leaky expression of CmR. Cells showed active growth even in the absence of AHL when the cell harboring the pairs of plasmids (1) and (2) in Prisoner <i>coli</i> A (Fig. 3-1-2-2.). As a result of our modeling, the influence of the leakage was not reduced by increasing the Cm concentration, which was one of our solutions. (link to modelingリンクさせる！！)<br>
| |
| − | For precise implementation of our payoff matrix, suggestions from modeling (link to modelingリンクさせる!!) allowed us to successfully solve the influence of the leakage by adding an ssrA tag right after the CmR gene (Pcon_<i>rhlR</i>_TT_Plux_CmRssrA, <a href="http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K1632023">BBa_K1632023</a>) (Fig. 3-1-2-3.). Protein with an ssrA tag is easily degraded by ClpXP and ClpAP that <i>E.coli</i> originally have. The optical density was measured every hour for eight hours to estimate the growth of the Prisoner <i>coli</i> with the improved parts (Pcon_<i>rhlR</i>_TT_Plux_CmRssrA).
