7x[TALA] operator_minimal promoter_mCitrine
- TALA labels represents TAL effector 1257 from zebrafish experiments (Sander et al., 2011).
- DNA binding sites for individual TAL effectors are indicated with square brackets [ ].
Introduction
Transcription activation like (TAL) effectors are proteins able to specifically bind desired DNA sequence. The central domain of the protein is constructed from variable number of tandem repeats differing only in two amino acids. The 12th and the 13th amino acid are called a “repeat variable diresidue” (RVD) and are responsible for specific interactions with the corresponding base pair (Scholze and Boch, 2011). This modularity of TAL effector binding domains therefore makes them a perfect tool to target specific DNA sequences. Our construct contains seven specific binding sites for TALA upstream of minimal promoter. Downstream of minimal promoter we cloned yellow fluorescent protein mCitrine an easy detectable monomer with excitation maximum at 516 nm and emission maximum at 529 nm (Figure 1). After binding of TALA:VP16 on binding sites, an activation of reporter protein mCitrine occurs.
