MS2 Bacteriophage Maturation Protein A with N-Terminal Histidine Tag and TEV Site (Composite)

Maturation Protein A is required in order for the capsid of the MS2 phage, and subsequently MS2-derived phage-like particles (PLP), to bind to bacterial pili. It is released from the capsid upon binding, and enters the cell along with the cargo to be delivered by the MS2 capsid. This composite part includes the IPTG-inducible T7 promoter (BBa_J64997), RBS BBa_B0034, maturation protein A coding region (BBa_K3738003), and double terminator BBa_B0015. The maturation protein A coding region includes a histidine tag on the N-terminus for to allow for peptide purification. There is also a TEV cleavage site between the coding region and the histidine tag, in order to allow for histidine tag removal following purification if desired.
