Design Notes

Planning the design of two different FokI-heterodimers

For the catalytically active Fok component named Fok_a, the first 1158 nucleotides naturally forming the DNA recognition domain were deleted. The residue glutamate 490 was switched to lysine (GAA->AAA) and isoleucine 538 to lysine (ATC->AAA) to abolish the formation of homodimers.

Modifications of the genes were created according to [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17603475 Miller J et al. Nature Biotechnology 2007] to abolish the formation of homodimers and to enable heterodimerization.
For exchanging the individual amino acids we used the E. coli codon usage table from [http://www.faculty.ucr.edu/~mmaduro/codonusage/codontable.htm Hénaut and Danchin].
