Regulating the expression of a protein can be achieved through repressive elements; we have the MS2 and MS2 hairpin, which regulate the production of RNA Dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp). As RdRp is fused with MS2 through a P2A linker, an indefinite increase in RdRp production is rate-limited by MS2 production. MS2 is able to bind to the MS2 hairpin sequence, also rate-limiting RdRp production, which in turn regulates the whole replicon system. The iGEM community can benefit from a regulation system, in which MS2 can be fused to a protein of interest to regulate its expression. If the fusion protein is non-functional, engineering restriction sites in the P2A linker and site specific ligation reconstitutes RdRp without the MS2 hairpin. The part derives from Auslander et al, which showed that the MS2 protein-box relationship can be designed for use in synthetic biology to create programmable single-cell mammalian biocomputers with simple expression logic, increasing the complexity of an information processing system without researcher input.

MS2 bacteriophage coat protein


Regulating the expression of a protein can be achieved through repressive elements; we have the MS2 and MS2 hairpin, which regulate the production of RNA Dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp). As RdRp is fused with MS2 through a P2A linker, an indefinite increase in RdRp production is rate-limited by MS2 production. MS2 is able to bind to the MS2 hairpin sequence, also rate-limiting RdRp production, which in turn regulates the whole replicon system. The iGEM community can benefit from a regulation system, in which MS2 can be fused to a protein of interest to regulate its expression. If the fusion protein is non-functional, engineering restriction sites in the P2A linker and site specific ligation reconstitutes RdRp without the MS2 hairpin. The part derives from Auslander et al, 2012, which showed that the MS2 protein-box relationship can be designed for use in synthetic biology to create programmable single-cell mammalian biocomputers with simple expression logic, increasing the complexity of an information processing system without researcher input.
