Usage
We constructed this part to characterize the recombination efficiency of the phiC31 integrase. It consists of a constitutive promoter (BBa_J23119) flanked by attB and attP sites of the phiC31 integrase. Upon recombination, the orientation of the constitutive promoter change. As a result, expression of downstream sequence is shut down, and upstream sequence is transcribed.
Biology
J23119 is the consensus sequence of a combinatorial constitutive promoter library family. Integrase phiC31 from phage phiC31 can recognize and bind the attP sequence on phage DNA and the attB sequence on the host chromosomal DNA, and promotes unidirectional recombination to integrate the phage DNA into the host. We obtained the promoter, attB and attP sites by oligo synthesis.
Design Notes
We construct this structure by Gibson Assembly.
Source
The Streptomyces phage
Characterization
We used this part to characterize the recombination efficiency of the integrase phiC31.
