The cassette of periodic expression and degradation of Cas9

This module consists of four parts: CLB2 promoter, Clb2 N124aa, a linker, and Cas9. CLB2 promoter is a cell-cycle associated promoter and makes Cas9 expressed at S phase and reached its peak at the G2/M phase. The first 124 amino acids of Clb2 contains D-box and KEN-box, which are the recognition sites by E3 ubiquitin ligase APC. The APC mediates the ubiquitin-proteasome proteolysis, making Cas9 degraded quickly. In this way, we control the expression and degradation of Cas9 periodically.


Usage

This module can be used to control Cas9 expression with the yeast cell cycle. If you want to control the expression and degradation of Cas9 during cell division, you can place this part on a yeast plasmid.

Design

We design a module to verify the periodic expression and degradation of Cas9, in which Cas9(BBa_K2130013) fused to the first 124 amino acids of Clb2 (BBa_K3506010) is put under the control of the CLB2 promoter(BBa_K3506007).

Experimental approach

1. Construct the recombinant plasmid. Get Cas9 from the plasmid pRH003.Get CLB2 promoter and the first 124 amino acids of Clb2 from Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C genome by PCR. Ligate the fragments by in-fusion cloning.

2. Transform the product (2.5μL) into E.coli DH5α competent cells(50μL), grow cells on agar plates (containing Ampicillin). Incubate plates at 37°C overnight. Monoclones were screened by colony PCR. The proper colony was selected and cultured at 37℃ and 200rpm, extract plasmids and sequence.

3. Linearize the plasmids with Xho1 and transform them (5-10ng) into Saccharomyces cerevisiae BY4741. Grow cells on SD-ura plate and incubate at 30℃ for 3 days. Monoclones were selected by colony PCR and sequencing.

4. Synchronize Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells.

Several methods (Alpha Factor、Nutrient Depletion、Hydroxyurea) can be used to synchronize yeast cells.

5. Release the yeast cells from synchronization. Collect a time-zero fraction. Then collect fractions of culture every 10 min for 120–180 min for Western Blot. Strain without being transformed was used as a negative control. Don’t forget to select the internal reference.

6. Obtain and analyze data. Draw the image of Cas9 protein levels over time.
