This biobrick is a part of a two-protein system in Saccharomyces cerevisiae which is designed for detection of human interleukin-6 and transduction of the signal by means of a reconstituted ubiquitin.

From N- to C-terminal the protein includes; An endoplasmatic reticulum import signal peptide from the Saccharomyces cerevisiae cell wall integrity and stress response component 1 (Wsc1) receptor in S. cerevisiae, the first three domains of the soluble isoform of human interleukin-6 co-receptor soluble glycoprotein 130 (sgp130), the transmembrane domain from Wsc1, the C-terminal part of the split version of ubiquitin and a synthetic transcription factor LexA-VP16. LexA is a DNA binding domain from Escherichia Coli and VP16 is a transcriptional activation domain from Herpes simplex virus Type 1. Together LexA-VP16 functions as an orthogonal transcription in S. cerevisiae. Between the extracellular sgp130 domains and the transmembrane domain, a (2x)GGGGS-linker was added. Between the transmembrane domain and the C-terminal split ubiquitin domain, two basic amino acids (KR), and the (2x)GGGGS-linker was added.
structure and function
The signal peptide and transmembrane domain constitute the backbone of the modular framework of the UCopenhagen 2020 team (CIDosis). These are used for localizing the interleukin-1, interleukin-6 and interleukin-10 receptor modules of our biosensors at the plasma membrane of S. cerevisiae as type I single pass transmembrane proteins. As a type I transmembrane protein, the soluble interleukin receptor domains localizes extracellularly while the C-terminal half of the split protein is intracellular. Ivanusic et al. (citation) introduced the use of the signal peptide and transmembrane domain in a split-ubiquitin system for screening for PPIs at the plasma membrane of S. cerevisiae.
The biobrick is intended to work together with BBa_K3617000 which possesses the soluble IL-6 receptor extracellularly and the N-terminal half of split ubiquitin. The biobrick and BBa_K3617000
