oz31 Toehold Switch for miR-31 Detection
Introduction
oz31 toehold switch is a regulatory part for the downstream reporter gene. With this part, the protein expression can be controlled by the miR-31. The sequence of the toehold switch can be separated into the following 5 regions from its 5' end: TBS (trigger binding site), stem region, loop region with RBS (ribosome binding site), complimentary stem region with a start codon, and linker. Upon binding with miR-31, its hairpin structure can be opened up and the ribosomes can bind with its RBS (ribosome binding site), triggering the translation of the downstream reporter.
Design
The design of the toehold switch was mainly based on the previous research[1][2][3][4][5][6]. For the oz31 toehold switch, we adopted the loop structure from Green et al., 2014[7], and the linker structure is from Green et al., 2016[8]. Using NUPACK analysis and Vienna binding models, we designed the sequence of the toehold switch. (See our model page: https://2020.igem.org/Team:CSMU_Taiwan/Model )
Characterization using invertase
The 2020 iGEM CSMU-Taiwan characterized the toehold switch with invertase (BBa_K3431000) reporter protein. The plasmid would be transcribed and translated with the protein synthesis kit at 37℃ for 2 hours. We would then add 5μl of 0.5M sucrose and measured the glucose concentration with RightestTM GS550 glucose meter after 30 minutes. In our experiments, the ON state refers to the conditions with miRNA triggers; while the OFF state means that there was no miRNA in the environment. We calculated the ON/OFF ratio of the toehold switch, which is defined as “the glucose concentration of the ON state/ the glucose concentration of the OFF state”.
Results
The ON/OFF ratio with miR-31 is 2.06, which suggested the regulatory function of the toehold switch. By contrast, the ON/OFF ratios with miR-191 and miR-223 are 0.70 and 0.56, respectively. These ratios are lower than 1, meaning the oz31 toehold switch has high specificity. As a result, oz31_ToeholdSwitch-Regulated Invertase has been proven to be useful for miR-31 detection.
