This sequence produces protein interleukin-1B, a human protein produced during fevers. For our project we detected IL1B with two single-chain antibodies fused to transcription initiating proteins (BBa_K2876001, BBa_K2876002). We validated our IL1B with an ELISA (https://www.thermofisher.com/elisa/product/IL-1-beta-Human-ELISA-Kit/BMS224-2) which proved production of IL1B, and that the IL1B produced was folded properly so that antibodies could bind. Validation of antibody binding was essential to ensure that IL1B could function as the target protein in our Single-Chain Antibody Prokaryotic Two Hybrid Detection System (Figure 1).

This sequence produces protein interleukin-1B, a human protein produced during fevers. For our project we detected IL1B with two single-chain antibodies fused to transcription initiating proteins (BBa_K2876001, BBa_K2876002). We validated our IL1B with an ELISA (https://www.thermofisher.com/elisa/product/IL-1-beta-Human-ELISA-Kit/BMS224-2) which proved production of IL1B, and that the IL1B produced was folded properly so that antibodies could bind. Validation of antibody binding was essential to ensure that IL1B could function as the target protein in our Single-Chain Antibody Prokaryotic Two Hybrid Detection System (Figure 1).
