Membrane Anchor 1 :ssDsbA-Lgt-PP7

Membrane anchor 1:RNA aptamer binding protein PP7 (BBa_K771111) fused with membrane protein Lgt(BBa_K771102).

Overview: Membrane Scaffold System

Demonstration of the whole Membrane Scaffold device. Membrane Anchor 2, 3, 4, 5 consitutively aggregate while Membrane Anchor 1 and 6 only aggregate with constitutive cluster (Membrane Anchor 2, 3, 4, 5) when certain signal is present.

Backgroud

Membrane Anchor 1 and 2 act as a controlling point to determine whether certain pathway （in this case involving enzyme 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5) is activated or not. RNA molecule D0(BBa_K771009) with PP7 and MS2 aptamer domain acts as the signal.

A:Sketch of signal RNA molecule (called D0) which consists of PP7 and MS2 aptamer domains. B: Through fusing PP7 and MS2 RNA biding domain (BBa_K771111 BBa_K771112) to our membrane device, RNA molecule D0(BBa_K771009) in Figure A can function as a bridge to connect different proteins, thus decreasing distance between corresponding enzymes.

Design

RNA aptamer binding protein PP7(BBa_K771111) fused with membrane protein Lgt (BBa_K771102). When RNA molecule D0 is present, Membrane Anchor 1 is expected to dimerize with Membrane Anchor 2(BBa_K771002) through MS2(BBa_K771112) and PP7(BBa_K771111) domain.
