This gene encodes a novel split-intein flanked reporter device which enables the use of intein splicing for any protein of interest through SapI digestion. Intein Monomer 1 was created to work in conjunction with its complimentary composite part Intein Monomer 2 to construct a intein polymerisation system.

USAGE AND BIOLOGY

PROTEIN POLYMERISATION BY SPLIT INTEINS

Discovered in the late 1980s, inteins are naturally occurring protein segments attached to specific host proteins of unicellular organisms (Protein Engineering Handbook, 2009). Inteins contain both an N- and C-terminal domain, which can be split to allow either half to be bound to unique external proteins. Matching split inteins self-excise from their attached host protein in a trans-splicing reaction (depicted in Figure X), which allows for the ligation of the external proteins through a peptide bond.
