RRkey

This part is half of a two-part riboregulator-system for E.coli for posttransciptional regulation of gene expression. Upon transcription the produced trans-activating RNA-sequence (taRNA) forms a RNA-RNA-complex with corresponding cis-repressing sequences (crRNA). This leads to a helix shift and the release of the formerly masked ribosome binding site (RBS) enabling the expression of the regulated gene of interest (GOI). The corresponding crRNAs are RRlocked, RRlocked_site and RRGFP.

**Figure 1:** Interaction of taRNA and crRNA leads to gene expression.

The sequence of the taRNA is based on an existing riboregulator sequence pair published by Isaacs et al[1]. The original sequence contained an EcoRI restriction site which was removed by basepair-exchange. We used the Riboswitch Designer to find out which basepair-exchange is best suited to remove the unwanted EcoRI restriction site while not affecting the folding- and interaction-capabilities of the sequence.
