CcdB coding sequence + 6xHis

The above sequence encodes for the CcdB protein, a component of the CcdA-CcdB toxin-antitoxin system. CcdB binds with CcdA which inhibits CcdB from targeting DNA gyrase thus preventing DNA double-strand breaks. The 6xHis tag is used for protein purification and identification.

Characterization

We obtained the sequence for ccdB from IDT through gblock synthesis. Since we aimed to develop determine how different combinations of our toxin-antitoxin system components (ccdA, ccdB, mleR) affect one another's activity to verify our kill switch theory, we designed our constructs with biobrick restriction sites that bracket our genetic components--to insert one of our components into our backbone pSB1C3, we would cut at EcoRI and SpeI for both the insert and the vector. We also flanked each component with a purification tag to observe their expression levels.
