<p>In the module, WinterGreen is the most important part. Normally, it catalyzes the conversion of salicylic acid into methyl salicylate. The protein is excreted by the bacteria and when salicylic acid is added to the medium, a chemical reaction takes place and produces methyl salicylate, which is responsible for the wintergreen odor.</p>

<p><b>How is the Aroma module composed?</b></p>
 
-
<p>This gene is composed by the following parts (see <b>figure 1A</b>): (1) a constitutive promoter, (2) a RNA thermometer, also called ribo-switch; used to regulate the WinterGreen-odor protein production through temperature, (3) a Wintergreen-odor enzyme generator, used to allow the production of methyl salicylate, induced by salicylic acid, and (4)  a terminator. All of these parts are ligated by an 8-bp scar (TACTAGAG).</p>

<p><b><h2>Device</h2></b></p>
-
align=center hspace=12 alt="IMG_0317"></p>
+
<p>Originally, WinterGreen was thought to be the reporter of the Capture module, but in order to prove the function of this gene and also the one in charge of the capture of sodium ions (NhaS), we decided to separate the full device into the actual modules of Capture and Aroma, as seen in the figure below.</p>

<p><b>Figure 2.</b> The device originally thought, and the 2 modules derived from it.</p></center><br>

<p>Different to fluorescent reporters, this module was made in order to perform as an aroma reporter and also to test the correct function of the bacteria, for its future usage as a new reporter and functional part (CDS). It is desired to use this part in the project to replace the red fluorescent protein (RFP) in the Capture module. But it was preferable to test it apart to demonstrate its effectiveness. Similarly, this piece is also helpful for Union module, because when performing the filtration by silica, WinterGreen can demonstrate the presence of bacteria in the beads. The team added the RNA thermometer for regulating the production of the aroma in the project.</p>
+
<p>This device is composed by the following parts (see <b>figure 3</b>): a constitutive promoter (1), a RNA thermometer (3); used to regulate the WinterGreen-odor protein production through temperature, a Wintergreen-odor enzyme generator, used to allow the production of methyl salicylate, induced by salicylic acid (2); and a terminator (4). All of these parts are ligated by an 8-bp scar (TACTAGAG).</p>

<p>Besides, this module has a constitutive promoter which will be regulated by temperature with the use of the RNA thermometer. When adding salicylic acid to the bacteria in a 32° Celsius environment, the production of the WinterGreen protein will begin.</p>
+
<p><b><h2>Justification</h2></b></p>
 +
<p>Different to fluorescent reporters, this module was made in order to (in the future) perform as an aroma reporter and also to test the correct function of the bacteria, for its future usage as a new reporter and functional part (CDS). It is desired to use this part in the project to replace the red fluorescent protein (RFP) in the Capture module. But it was preferable to test it apart to demonstrate its effectiveness. Similarly, this piece is also helpful when the biofilter is assembled, because when performing the filtration by silica, WinterGreen can demonstrate the presence of bacteria in the beads. </p>
-
<p><b>Parts of the module</b></p>
+
<p>The team added the RNA thermometer in the device for regulating the production of the aroma. Another reason for selecting the RNA thermometer as a regulator was to continue the CIDEB UANL 2013 work with it.</p>

<p>This RBS (Ribosome Binding Site) is classified as a RNA thermometer, used for temperature post-transcriptional regulation (thermo sensor), and is designed to initiate translation around 32°C. The thermo sensor is repressed when the temperature is below 32°C, it does not translate because the mRNA takes a secondary structure just as the image below and cannot enter the ribosome for translation; when the temperatures reaches a range between 32°C and 37°C, the thermo sensor is activated and the mRNA unfolds into a straight structure that now allows access to the ribosome to start the production of the protein. </p></td>

Notice that the 3' end, including the scar and the start codon, does not belong to the part. The blue region is the Shine Dalgarno (SD) sequence which is the ribosome binding site (TUDelft, 2008).</p>

<p>This CDS works encoding SAM benzoic acid/salicylic acid carboxyl methyltransferase I, derived from BSMT1 from Petunia x hybrida. BSMT1 catalyzes the conversion of salicylic acid to methyl salicylate. Methyl benzoate has a floral smell and methyl salicylate has a wintergreen smell. (MIT, 2006).</p>

iGEM CIDEB 2014 - Project

Aroma Module


Since the beginning of iGEM project, the use of fluorescent reporters has been used in each one of the proposed projects in previous years, trying to test the theoretical presence of other proteins in E. coli. For our iGEM 2014 project, this module proposed to promote the usage of aroma reporters, instead of fluorescent ones.


Description

In the module, WinterGreen is the most important part. Normally, it catalyzes the conversion of salicylic acid into methyl salicylate. The protein is excreted by the bacteria and when salicylic acid is added to the medium, a chemical reaction takes place and produces methyl salicylate, which is responsible for the wintergreen odor.

But in this module, it will be regulated by temperature with the use of the RNA thermometer. When adding salicylic acid to the bacteria in a 32° Celsius environment, the production of the WinterGreen protein will begin.


Figure 1. Production of Wintergreen Odor

Device

Originally, WinterGreen was thought to be the reporter of the Capture module, but in order to prove the function of this gene and also the one in charge of the capture of sodium ions (NhaS), we decided to separate the full device into the actual modules of Capture and Aroma, as seen in the figure below.

Figure 2. The device originally thought, and the 2 modules derived from it.


This device is composed by the following parts (see figure 3): a constitutive promoter (1), a RNA thermometer (3); used to regulate the WinterGreen-odor protein production through temperature, a Wintergreen-odor enzyme generator, used to allow the production of methyl salicylate, induced by salicylic acid (2); and a terminator (4). All of these parts are ligated by an 8-bp scar (TACTAGAG).

Figure 3. Aroma Module


These 4 genetic parts form the Aroma device of the project. The full device's length is 1,251bp (including restriction sites).

CODE

DESCRIPTION

 

BBa_J23119A

 

In the specific case of our aroma module, it will help the bacteria to continuously transcribe the WinterGreen gene in order to allow the bacteria to continuously produce the aroma. This promoter has a length of 35bp.

BBa_K115017

A RNA thermometer, used for temperature post-transcriptional regulation (thermo sensor), and is designed to initiate transcription around 32°C.

BBa_K1255001

 

Produces a transferase to convert salicylic acid into methyl salicylate (WinterGreen odor). The wintergreen odor generator requires of 2mM of salicylic acid to produce methyl salicylate. BSMT1 (BBa_J45004), WinterGreen Odor Generator original name, was created by MIT 2006. This year, the team optimized the sequence for Escherichia coli. The new biobrick has a length of 1,074bp.

BBa_B1002

 

Part made of 6bp, responsible for transcription stop. The terminator stops the production of methyl salicylate.


Justification

Different to fluorescent reporters, this module was made in order to (in the future) perform as an aroma reporter and also to test the correct function of the bacteria, for its future usage as a new reporter and functional part (CDS). It is desired to use this part in the project to replace the red fluorescent protein (RFP) in the Capture module. But it was preferable to test it apart to demonstrate its effectiveness. Similarly, this piece is also helpful when the biofilter is assembled, because when performing the filtration by silica, WinterGreen can demonstrate the presence of bacteria in the beads.

The team added the RNA thermometer in the device for regulating the production of the aroma. Another reason for selecting the RNA thermometer as a regulator was to continue the CIDEB UANL 2013 work with it.

Other teams that used RNA thermometer and BSMT1

Team

Part Used

Use

TuDelft 2008 :

RNA themometer

 

Temperature-sensing bacteria that changes color at different temperatures; as a temperature reporter system inlarge-scale fermentations, or as a temperature-inducible protein production system.

 

Victoria BC 2009 :

 

RNA themometer

 

NAND logic gate using the ribo-key/ribo-lock system designed by Berkeley 2006 team , producing RFP except when the cells are grown in the presence of both arabinose and IPTG, also coupling fluorescent outputs with the ribo-thermometers made by TUDelft 2008 team.

 

CIDEB UANL 2013 :

 

RNA themometer

 

Production of Vip3ca3, which acts as a pesticide protein, regulated by specific temperatures in order to avoid overproduction and it will show activity against target organisms Coleoptera and Lepidoptera..

 

MIT 2006 :

 

BSMT1

This device produces methyl salicylate in the presence of salicylic acid. Methyl salicylate smells strongly of mint (wintergreen). Production of methyl salicylate was verified both by scent and by gas chromatography: E. coli with no WGD did not produce methyl salicylate when SA was added to the medium, while E. coli with the WGD did produce methyl salicylate when SA was added to the medium..
