10x[TALA] operator_CMV promoter_TALD:NLS:KRAB


  • TALA and TALD labels represents TAL effectors 1257 and 1295 respectively from zebrafish experiments (Sander et al., 2011).
  • DNA binding sites for individual TAL effectors are indicated with square brackets [ ].


Introduction

TAL effectors (TALEs) are bacterial plant pathogen transcription factors, that bind to DNA by specifically recognizing one base pair with a single tandem repeat in their DNA-binding domain. A tandem TALE repeat contains 33 to 35 amino acids, where the 12th and 13th amino acid, called a “repeat variable diresidue” (RVD), are responsible for specific interactions with the corresponding base pair (Scholze and Boch, 2011).

This part contains 10 TALA binding sites, upstream of a CMV promoter (constitutive promoter for expression in mammalian cells). Downstream of the promoter there is a TAL repressor TALD:NLS:KRAB. This way we have a TAL effector under the control of another TAL effector, which allows us to create more complicated genetic circuits with more than one level of regulation.
