F1v (FKBP with F36V mutation) without stop codon

contributed by Fudan iGEM 2023

Introduction

This part is FKBP with F36V mutation, which is a signal transducer. It's used to bind with the target protein. The working procedure of F1v need the use of AP20187, which is a small molecule inducers. The addition of AP20187 to live cells expressing a F1v-tagged fusion protein induces self-association of the fusion protein by promoting the interaction of the dimerization domains.[1]

Figure 1. The working procedure of AP20187 and F1v according to the iDimerize™ Inducible Homodimer System User Manual. The F1v is combined with the target protein, which is NixA in our experiment, and the AP20187 can induce self-association of the NixA.

Usage and Biology

In our experiment, we adopted the iDimerize kit. To learn fully about this kit, please check iDimerize™ Inducible Homodimer System User Manual.

For convenient connections between the Fiv and NixA, we delete the stop codon of F1v. We link this part with BBa_K5115071(NixA) in two different ways to find the more efficient way of dimerizing the NixA protein. It turns out that linking F1v with the C end of NixA is a better choice, please check BBa_K5115086(NixA-F1v)for more details about our experiment.
