Hin Invertase

The Hin invertase enzyme from Salmonella typhimurium has been studied extensively in E. coli. Hin binds each Hix sequence flanking a fragment of DNA to be inverted as a dimer. The two dimers come together to form a tetrad complex where cleaved DNA ends are swapped and ligated (Richards and Johnson 2004). We have reconstituted the Hin invertase system (Hin coding region, Hix sites and a Recombination Enhancer DNA sequence) as a BioBrick compatible system.

Design Notes

This part was cloned via PCR amplification of BBa_J31000 using the following primers. The reverse oligo was designed to add the LVA degradation tag to the end of the Hin invertase coding region. Primer annealing sites are shown in bold.

The BioBrick prefix and suffix on this part are not wildtype but the restriction sites are still viable.

Prefix
There is no T spacer (*) between the NotI site and the XbaI site.
There is no G spacer (*) between the XbaI and the Hin coding region.
Suffix
There is no T spacer (*) between the Hin coding region and the SpeI site.
The A spacer between the SpeI and the NotI has changed to a T.
There is an extra C between the NotI site and the PstI site
