Plasmid extraction of cscB and transformation into PCC7942.
Measurement of cscB plasmid concentration and sample submission for testing.
SN medium used for wild type, pre-transformation, and post-transformation.
Stage3: Expression Verification(9.7-9.22)
We measured sucrose content from September 7 to 22, showing that transformed
cyanobacteria had decreased intracellular sucrose and increased supernatant sucrose,
indicating their ability to secrete sucrose.
S. oneidensis MR-1
Stage1: Strain Culture(7.9-7.22)
Designed a thiobarbituric acid method for colorimetric detection of formic acid
concentration, using a microplate reader to measure OD450 absorbance.
Design three electrosynthesis experiments with wild-typeS. oneidensis MR-1.
Measurement of the resistance of different powered devices.
Stage2: Strain Transformation(7.16-7.24)
We prepared S. oneidensis MR-1 competent cells and attempted electroporation. However, the
electroporation was unsuccessful.
Through continuous learning and optimization of the procedure, we successfully
achieved electroporation.
Stage3: Expression Verification(8.1-9.22)
We designed and completed a fourth electrosynthesis experiment, which confirmed the
successful expression of the designed gene plasmid and improved EEU efficiency.
We designed the 5th and 6th electrosynthesis experiments, which confirmed that the
addition of 2-HNQ improved EEU efficiency.
We designed the 7th and 8th electrosynthesis experiments, which confirmed that the
addition of riboflavin improved EEU efficiency.
S. oneidensis MR-1 Chelex100 DNA Extraction
We completed the 9th and 10th electrosynthesis experiments, which confirmed that the
addition of riboflavin and rGO improved EEU efficiency.
Vibrio Natriegens
Stage1: Strain Culture(7.3-7.16)
Designed four media formulations: 2216E, 2216E + 1.5% NaCl, 2216 + 3% NaCl, 2216E +
4.5% NaCl for cultivating V.N.
Attempted to Culture Vibrio natriegens with sodium formate.

Electroporated plasmid.
100ng plasmid added to 50uL competent V.N.
V.N. electroporation.
100ng plasmid added to 50uL competent V.N.
Extraction of CA plasmid from E. coli.
V.N. electroporation.
V.N. electroporation. transformation failure.
V.N. electroporation. transformation failure.
V.N. electroporation. transformation failure.
V.N. electroporation. transformation failure.
Stage3: Expression Verification(8.26-9.30)
1.Glycerol stock of E.coli Cabp-Chbd plated on resistant medium.
2. E.coli Cabp-Chbd preserved by streaking.
3. Induced expression, fluorescence microscopy showed no 580nm excitation light. No
fluorescence at 550nm.
Reinduced and wrapped in aluminum foil, attempted fluorescence detection again with
535B microplate reader.
Preparation of induction expression system (4 sets).
0:00: Inoculated E. coli (containing Cabp-Chbd and CA genes), OD600 measured.
Measured mCherry and EGFP fluorescence intensity (morning)
Afternoon
significant change in fluorescence intensity, first induction failed.
Inoculated V.N., OD600 measured.
A concentration gradient of IPTG was prepared, and transformed Vibrio
natriegens was inoculated at 22:00. When OD600 reached 0.5, IPTG was added to
induce fluorescent protein expression, which was observed using a fluorescence
microscope.
Upon excitation with red light under the fluorescence microscope, the Vibrio
natriegens transformed with the mCherry gene exhibited a stable red fluorescent
signal, confirming the successful expression of the plasmid.
Fluorescence microscopy of Vibrio natriegens expressing EGFP showed a strong,
uniform green fluorescence under 488 nm excitation, with emission around 509 nm,
confirming correct EGFP expression. This indicates successful transformation and
effective transcription and translation of the CARPs plasmid in Vibrio
natriegens.
