BlcR L66A

A mutant of the BlcR protein, created through site-directed mutagenesis with primers R3 (Part:BBa_K4361218) and F3.2 L66A (Part:BBa_K4361220). For this mutant, the leucine in position 66 has been changed to alanine by mutating the CTC codon to GCG.

This mutant also contains the following nucleotide mutations outside of the targeted site:

  • T 826 > A, resulting in possible loss of the stop codon

Usage and Biology

The set of BlcR mutants (Part:BBa_K4361300 through Part:BBa_K4361319) were expressed in a PURE system in the presence of GreenLys (fluorescent Cy2-labeled lysine). Samples were then run on an SDS PAGE gel (Figure 1.) to determine whether or not the protein was produced. For this mutant (lane 12), a protein band corresponding to the BlcR monomer is visible. Concluding that the production in an E. coli cell-free system was successful for this mutant.
