10x[TALA] operator_CMV promoter_TALB:NLS:KRAB_t2a_mNeptune

  • TALB and TALA labels represents TAL effectors 1297 and 1257 respectively from zebrafish experiments (Sander et al., 2011).
  • DNA binding sites for individual TAL effectors are indicated with square brackets [ ].


Introduction

This part combined with 10x[TALB] operator_CMV promoter_TALA:KRAB:NLS_t2a_mCitrine is the key element of the mutual repressor switch.

The part contains 10 repeats of TALA binding sites upstream of a CMV promoter (constitutive promoter for expression in mammalian cells). Downstream of the promoter, there is the TAL repressor TALB:KRAB linked to the red fluorescent protein mNeptune, by a t2A sequence. The t2A sequence, causes the ribosome to skip the formation of a peptide bond during protein translation, producing TALB:KRAB and mNeptune as separate proteins in equimolar amounts (Garg et.al, 2012). mNeptune functions as a reporter for the expression of TALB:KRAB, it is a red fluorescent protein with an excitation peak at 600 nm and emission peak at 650 nm and brightness of 13.4.

Characterization

HEK293T cells were transfected with 10×[A]_PCMV_TALB:KRAB_mNeptune and visualized under confocal microscope. Cells were shown to fluoresce with mNeptune, showing that mNeptune is expressed.

HEK293T cells were transfected with 10×[A]_PCMV_TALB:KRAB_mNeptune, 10×[B]_PCMV_TALA:KRAB_mCitrine, 10×[B]_PCMV_fLuciferase reporter (firefly luciferase) and different amounts of PCMV_TALA:KRAB. TALA:KRAB represses TALB:KRAB causing derepression of fLuciferase, showing that the construct is repressed by TALA:KRAB.
