We have used PT7-RFP-6AGG ([https://parts.igem.org/wiki/index.php?title=Part:BBa_K567017 BBa_K567017]) as our Reporter. We have constructed tRNA<sup>Asp</sup>-AGG and PT7-TDRS (AspRS without anticodon recognition domain, )  ([https://parts.igem.org/wiki/index.php?title=Part:BBa_K567012 BBa_K567012] and [https://parts.igem.org/wiki/index.php?title=Part:BBa_K567011 BBa_K567011])as the Modulator. tRNA<sup>Asp</sup>-AGG, which can recognize rare codon AGG, is under constitutive promoter. Our device works as follows: Without Modulator, RFP with 6 consecutive AGG insertions can hardly be expressed. When Modulator works, tRNA<sup>Asp</sup>-AGG can be charged with Asp by TDRS. tRNA<sup>Asp</sup>-AGG recognizes rare codon AGG on the Reporter RFP-6AGG. The ribosome gets through this part of the mRNA more easily. RFP is expressed. Red fluorescence is observed. Our experiment results are shown below.

PT7-TDRS

aspartyl aminoacyl tRNA synthetase without anticodon recognition domain under the control of T7 promoter and lac operator. This biobrick is constructed by deleting the anticodon recognition domain of AspRS from E.coli. This modified AspRS can charge Asp to tRNAAsp-TAG (BBa_K567013) and tRNAAsp-AGG (BBa_K567012).


To deprive AspRS of its anticodon specificity, we analyzed the structure of AspRS and expressed a truncated AspRS without anticodon recognition domain. Our design is shown below. This modified enzyme keeps its ability of aminoacylation while loses its activity of recognizing anticodon of tRNA.

Fig 1. The design for modification is based on the crystal structure of E.coli AspRS coupled with tRNA (PDB ID: 1C0A). This figure shows E.coli aspartyl-tRNA synthetase with and without anticodon recognition domain. After this domain is depleted, the enzyme cannot bind tRNAAsp anticodon. Yet the ability of aminoacylation is maintained.
