Promoter RBS FimH 136KO-RPMrel

FimH protein is a subunit of type 1 pili present in E coli. The FimH adhesin found at the tip of type 1 pili binds naturally to mannose. Substitution of 1 amino acid at the ------ position disrupts its ability to bind to mannose. Introduction of the above mutation and adding RPMrel, a colon cancer homing peptide downstream ensures it selective binding to colon cancer cells. This part was already developed with an arabinose promoter, a SpyTag and a HisTag downstream to RPMrel. We amplified the FimHRPMrel from this existing part, and to this, we ligated a strong constitutive promoter and strong RBS for greater expression. Sequence and Features

+FimH protein is a subunit of type 1 pili present in E coli. The FimH adhesin found at the tip of type 1 pili binds naturally to mannose. Substitution of 1 amino acid at the ------ position disrupts its ability to bind to mannose. Introduction of the above mutation and adding RPMrel, a colon cancer homing peptide downstream ensures it selective binding to colon cancer cells. This part was already developed with an arabinose promoter, a SpyTag and a HisTag downstream to  RPMrel. We amplified the FimHRPMrel from this existing part, and to this, we ligated a strong constitutive promoter and strong RBS for greater expression.
