RBS+ydcD: antitoxin gene
ydcD has another name endB. This gene encodes a labile antidote –YdcD - for ydcE(ndoA) gene. YdcD can directly inhibit EndoA in vitro, so that the bacteria will not be vitiated under low level expression of YdcE. (Pellegrini et al., 2005) For reasons why we include this gene in our cell growth inhibition device, please click:BBa_K733012.
Characterization by UCAS iGEM 2016 team
This is we used the ydcD and ydcE genes to build a kill-switch. By measuring the growth curve of E. coli expressing the antitoxin and toxin, we showed that toxin EndoA can be effectively neutralized by its antitoxin EndoB. However, if the expression of EndoA is too strong (for example, induced by 5µg/mL aTc in our case), toxin will not be neutralized by antitoxin. We also characterized toxin ydcE, documented on the page: BBa_K733004
In the figure above, toxin is induced at 0 min by 1.7µg/mL aTc, and antitoxin is induced by 8mM of IPTG after incubation for 4 hours.
In the figure above, toxin and antitoxin are both induced at 0 min.
