Device
OmpA-HIVcl

Part:BBa_K743011

Designed by: Bryon Silva   Group: iGEM12_UC_Chile   (2012-09-22)

OmpA + HIV protease cleavage site secretion system

This device is designed for the further incorporation of any protein coding sequence downstream the HIV cleavage site. Upon addition of arabinose to the medium, the inducible Pbad promoter drives the expression of outer membrane protein A fused to a extracellular linker (ompA brick) followed by a cleavage site recognizable by HIV protease.

If any polypeptide sequence is fused to the 3' end of the HIV cleavage site DNA sequence, it will protrude from the outer membrane where it will be cleaved from the ompA domain by HIV protease.

This part was used by [http://2012.igem.org/Team:UC_Chile 2012 UC Chile team] to secrete GFP and a spider silk monomer.
