Part:BBa_K1639016

VP16 Transcriptional Activation Domain with miR223 and miR21 Binding Site

This part is same with BBa_K1639016 differing only in miR binding site

Usage and Biology

Cloning into pTet-off

This part contains VP16 activator complex with appropriate

enzyme cut sites and miRNA binding sites for high-miRNas. Originally it's same with VP16 part of tetracycline-controlled transactivator (tTA), comprising a fusion of the tetracycline repressor TetR with the C-terminal activation domain of herpes simplex virus VP16 By including Sal1 cut site at the beginning of this part we can change it with original tTA part found in pTet-off plasmid. (Figure 1) We performed ligation and then transformed the plasmids into BL21 bacteria. After 16 hours incubation at 37 C, we performed colony PCR and cut-check to check for positive clones. Despite trying this strategy 7 or 8 times, we were unable to successfully clone this g-block into pTET off.

Below there is a whole diagram of Cancer module. This part is first step in this machinery. (Figure 2)
