mCherry- (Ec)ssrA(DAS+4)-TT
construction
The part contains the red fluorescent protein mCherry fused to the E. coli(ec)ssrA(DAS+4) tag and a double terminator.
biology
The ssrA tag is a short peptide sequence, which is fused to the C-terminus of proteins, which should be degraded. It relates to the protease ClpXP complex in E.coli and it also allows the adaptor proteins SspB binding and delivering substrates to the proteases in order to make the process more efficient. The mutated ecssrA(DAS+4) weakens a direct binding between proteases and ssrA and increases the dependance of ecSspB. [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16762842]
mCherry is a red fluorescent protein with the excitation maximum at 587 nm and the Emission maximum at 610 nm. [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15558047]
The double terminator stops the transcription at this point.
application
As we want to control protein degradation by controlling the function of ecSspB, we tag the red fluorescent protein mCherry with ecssrA(DAS+4) to measure the degradation rate.
Application as a bacterial fotographic film might be possible as well.
