tctB_162: small subunit B1 of the tripartite tricarboxylate transporter family

The small subunit B1 of the tripartite tricarboxylate transporter family (tctB_162, 17 kDa) was isolated from Comamonas testosteroni KF-1. The tripartite tricarboxylate transporter system consists of three different proteins: a periplasmatic solute binding receptor, a membrane protein with 12 putative transmembrane alpha-helical spanners (in this case tctB_162), and a small poorly conserved membrane proteine with four putative transmembrane alpha-helical spanners[1].The strain was purchased from Leibniz Institute DMSZ-German Collection of Microorganism and Cell Cultures (DMSZ no. 14576). The original sequence contains a Pst1 recognition site. To eliminate this recognition site a directed-site mutagenic PCR was performed. (For more datails:[http://2012.igem.org/Team:TU_Darmstadt/Protocols/mutagenic_PCR mutagenic PCR)] To characterized the structure of the tctB_162 bioinformatic tools like P rotein H omology/anolog Y R ecognition E ngine V 2.0 (PHYRE2), I-TASSER servers, protein B asic L ocal A ligment S earch T ool (BLAST) and TMHMM was used. The TMHMM predicted a transmembrane protein with 5 alpha-helical spanners (Fig. 1). The N-teminus is with a probability of over 99 % in cytoplasmatic. The NCBI Protein BLAST results shows that the tctB_162 subunit B1 belongs to the tctB superfamily.

Functional Parameters: Austin_UTexas

BBa_K808003 parameters

Burden Imposed by this Part:

Burden Value: 0.5 ± 3.6%

Burden is the percent reduction in the growth rate of E. coli cells transformed with a plasmid containing this BioBrick (± values are 95% confidence limits). This BioBrick did not exhibit a burden that was significantly greater than zero (i.e., it appears to have little to no impact on growth). Therefore, users can depend on this part to remain stable for many bacterial cell divisions and in large culture volumes. Refer to any one of the BBa_K3174002 - BBa_K3174007 pages for more information on the methods, an explanation of the sources of burden, and other conclusions from a large-scale measurement project conducted by the 2019 Austin_UTexas team.

This functional parameter was added by the 2020 Austin_UTexas team.
