Part:BBa_K4147013

Down part of cassette for siRNA production

The lower part of the cassette is for the production of siRNA. It is composed of a reverse T7 promoter with an RBS (BBa_K4147014) and a T7 terminator (BBa_K864600).

In order to produce the siRNAs, this part is assembled with the upper part.

Usage and Biology

To produce the double-stranded siRNAs, an expression system has been designed and must be assembled. For this method of construct assembly for dsRNA expression, we were inspired by the method used by the Ecuador 2021 team. When analyzing the possible options to produce siRNA we found that it was possible to use assembly methods to make constructs that encode in both directions.

The figure below shows the assembly strategy that is planned to be used.
