TaqI Composite

This sequence codes for the restriction enzyme TaqI methyltransferase. TaqI Methyltransferase modifies the adenine residue (N6) of the sequence TCGA and is dam methylation sensitive.


As part of the Imperial 2009 iGEM E.ncapsulator project, TaqI was used along with DpnII to cut up the genetic material within the cell, completing the cell death module.


Usage and Biology

The restriction enzyme TaqI, is isolated from the bacterium Thermus aquaticus. 1

TaqI is a 4 base cutter, leaving a 2 base overhang.

The cutting site is as shown:

TCGA -> T / CGA

AGCT -> AGC / T
