this part is a Ubiquitin-conjugating E2 ligase which has a role in the ubiquitination cascade for protein degradation. It has been used in this project to target and degrade both tau and Aβ proteins which are both considered the main causes of Alzheimer’s Disease pathogenesis.
+
This part encodes for the UBE2N enzyme which is a member of the E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme family. It acts as the second enzyme in the ubiquitination cascade to receive the thio-esterified ubiquitin from the E1 active site. it will bind to the His tag For the purification of the protein.

His - UBE2N

This biobrick consists of T7 promotor (BBa_K3633015), RBS (BBa_K4165075), His 6-His tag (BBa_K4165020), UBE2N (BBa_K4165011), T7 Terminator (BBa_K731721), The His tag was attached to the UBE2N coding sequence to serve in the purification using NI-NTA column.

Mathematical Modeling

Transcription rate and translation rate under T7 promotor

the mathematical modeling was based on our code for the calculation of transcription and translation (you can find it in the code section) beside with the estimated results from the wet lab. 

                    Figure 1. this figure shows the results from the transcription and translation code showing the 
                                     variation of mRNA and protein concentrations with time.
