The CSU_CHINA iGEM team 2019 designed a fusion protein consisting of yCD and miR101-BS for sequence-specific expression of yCD .Therefore, we used our miR101-BD(BBa_K2908668) to bind different concentrations of miR101 so that regulate the transactivation domain of yCD(BBa_K2908667).CD converts the prodrug 5-FC (used to treat infections by fungi such as Candida albicans and Cryptococcus neoformans) into the active agent 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). While 5-FC is nontoxic to human cells because of the lack of CD, 5-FU is used to treat cancers like colon, pancreatic, and breast cancer. The cytotoxic effects of 5-FU occur following its conversion to 5-fluoro-2'-deoxyuridine-5'-monophosphate (5-FdUMP). 5-FdUMP is an irreversible inhibitor of thymidylate synthase and thus inhibits DNA synthesis by deoxythymidine triphosphate (dTTP) deprivation and causes DNA strand breakage, leading to cell death.

The CSU_CHINA iGEM team 2019 designed a fusion protein consisting of yCD and miR101-BS for sequence-specific expression of yCD .Therefore, we used our miR101-BD(BBa_K2908668) to bind different concentrations of miR101 so that regulate the transactivation domain of yCD(BBa_K2908667).CD converts the prodrug 5-FC (used to treat infections by fungi such as Candida albicans and Cryptococcus neoformans) into the active agent 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). While 5-FC is nontoxic to human cells because of the lack of CD, 5-FU is used to treat cancers like colon, pancreatic, and breast cancer. The cytotoxic effects of 5-FU occur following its conversion to 5-fluoro-2'-deoxyuridine-5'-monophosphate (5-FdUMP). 5-FdUMP is an irreversible inhibitor of thymidylate synthase and thus inhibits DNA synthesis by deoxythymidine triphosphate (dTTP) deprivation and causes DNA strand breakage, leading to cell death.
