<h2> EcoFactory, a multipromoter explorer expression system for <i> Escherichia coli </i> </h2>
+
<head>
<p> At the moment, the most popular system in use for protein expression is the pET expression system.
+
<style>
The pET expression system is a lactose induced T7 polymerase dependent system.

.content {width: 80%; margin: auto;}
+
This system, however, has few downsides: i) the system tends to leak; ii) it is very hard to control the protein expression level once it is induced; iii) being a viral polymerase,T7 polymerase has a tendency to insert the mismatches (mutations) in the transcripted sequence; iv) if the produced protein is toxic for the host, the bacterial culture can decline before the desired concentration of the protein of interest is manufactured; v) the organized and stable transfer of the produced protein to i.e. a medium can prove difficult to carry out. </p>
+
<p> Therefore, we decided to seek an alternate solution to use in protein expression.
+
We prepared a series of plasmids expressing his-tagged superfolder GFP under the control of four nontoxic inducers: arabinose, melibiose, rhamnose and xylose.  The four promoters are more controllable than the most popular lactose induced T7RNA polymerase dependent systems. The coding sequences are transcribed by the cellular RNA polymerase which is slower and more accurate than T7 RNA polymerase.  SfGFP can be used to compare activities of standard, modified, and minimal promoters during growth on different carbon sources and as well as a probe of a fused protein solubility. We present a  comprehensive comparison of the sfGFP expression driven by inducible promoters with the insulated, constitutive promoters proC and proD as standards. Two pairs of primers  should be sufficient to clone an ORF of interest as a protein fused to sfGFP or to replace it in all vectors of the mulltipromoter system. </p>
+
<p> Our next step is to compare the efficiency between these promoters and test their function when grown on the media consisting of different components.

}
<li>You have a global audience! Consider the different backgrounds that your users come from.</li>
+
<li>Make sure information is easy to find; nothing should be more than 3 clicks away.  </li>
+
<li>Avoid using very small fonts and low contrast colors; information should be easy to read.  </li>
+
<li>Start documenting your project as early as possible; don’t leave anything to the last minute before the Wiki Freeze. For a complete list of deadlines visit the <a href="https://2015.igem.org/Calendar_of_Events">iGEM 2015 calendar</a> </li>

.banner {width: 100%; margin-top: 24px;}
<p> You can upload your pictures and files to the iGEM 2015 server. Remember to keep all your pictures and files within your team's namespace or at least include your team's name in the file name. <br />
+
When you upload, set the "Destination Filename" to <code>Team:YourOfficialTeamName/NameOfFile.jpg</code>. (If you don't do this, someone else might upload a different file with the same "Destination Filename", and your file would be erased!)</p>
