Profile

Name:pvc1-pvc12,pvc13_NTD-2*Bsal-pVc13_CTD,pvc14-pvc16
Base Pairs: 19822bp
Origin: Photorhabdus
Properties: Structural and accessory genes


Usage and Biology

This part is necessary for the assembly of a functional injection system. PVCs probably recognize target cells via tail fibres (Pvc13), leading to a contraction of the sheath mechanism that drives a spike through the cellular membrane.[1]
Pvc2, Pvc3 and Pvc4 compose the sheath of PVC. Pvc16 is sheath terminator of PVC. Pvc13 is tail fibres of PVC. Pvc9, Pvc11 and Pvc12 compose the baseplate of PVC. Pvc8 and Pvc10 compose the spike of PVC. Pvc1, Pvc5 and Pvc7 compose the tube of PVC.[2]（Fig.1)
This part has a Bsal enzyme recognizing sequence, which can allow to use the way Golden Gate Assembly to construct a plasmid.(Fig.2)

Special Design

To enable the PVC-based delivery of UCP1 into white adipose tissue, we then decided to equip the tail fiber protein of PVC (PVC13) with an adipose tissue-targeting 9-mer peptide developed by Kolonin et al. in 2004[3]. To ensure the efficient exposure of the targeting peptide on the tail fiber, we predicted the structure of PVC13 trimers inserted with adipose tissue targeting peptide flanked by different linkers (Figure 2a). We were unable to peruse validating these constructs due to the limited time before the jamboree and the practical difficulties in working with such a huge plasmid (~25kb), while we did make some effort in simplifying the cloning process by designing a new PVC13 part which allows subsequent Golden-gate-based cloning of the targeting sequence into the pPVC plasmid (Figure 2b, see the second part of our Engineering page for more information).
