The designed sequence is based on a ROSE RNA thermometer retrieved from ''Bradyrhizobium japonicum USDA 110'' ([http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=genome&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=272 <code>NC_004463</code>]), residing at location [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/projects/sviewer/?id=NC_004463.1&v=5784144..5784239 <code>5784144-5784239</code>] within the genome, which is at the 5' side of the gene [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?db=gene&cmd=search&term=NC_004463%20hspb hspB]. The temperature sensitive hairpin of this RNA thermometer is destabilized in order to get a lower switching temperature. Incorporation of weak base pairs, bulge loops, and internal loops is used for the destabilization, while ensuring that the secondary structure remains unaltered, and the distribution of the free energy within the temperature sensitive hairpin remains similar to the characteristic distribution which seems to be similar to all RNA thermometers of this type as shown [http://2008.igem.org/Team:TUDelft/Temperature_analysis#Results here]. The dark blue line in the graph shows the found trend which is the characteristic distribution of free energy within 32 RNA thermometers which have their switching point around 37°C. The light blue shows the distribution of the free energy for this part at 27°C (as calculated with RNAeval). This line is fitted to the trend line, so that its temperature sensitive hairpin has the same stability, but at a lower temperature (27°C instead of 37°C). The assumption is that this will also cause the switching temperature to 27°C.

RNA thermometer (ROSE 27C)

An [http://2008.igem.org/Team:TUDelft/Temperature_analysis#RNA_thermometer RNA thermometer] which can be used for temperature sensitive post-transcriptional regulation, and which is designed to initiate translation around 27°C.

The image shows the secondary structure of the part after ligation to a protein coding part, as predicted by [http://rna.tbi.univie.ac.at/cgi-bin/RNAfold.cgi RNAfold]. Notice that the 3' end, including the scar and the start codon, does not belong to the part. The blue region is the Shine Dalgarno sequence which is the ribosome binding site.
