T7 phage gene product 2, an E.coli transcription inhibitor


Introduction

2021 Fudan

In order to turn the host bacteria into ‘factories’ that concentrate on manufacturing parts of the virus, some phages have the ability to shut off the endogenous transcription of host bacteria. As for T7 phage, there are three gene products collaboratively realizing the function, which are gene product (gp) 0.7, gp2 and gp5.7[1].

Gp2 is an early phage gene, which means they are transcribed by the host's RNA polymerase at the very beginning of the infection process[2].


Usage and Biology

Gp2 is a small protein that can bind to both the 1.1 domain of σ70 factor and the β’ subunit of the host's RNAP[3], results in effective inhibiting of the transcription initiated by σ70-RNAP complex.

It can be used to inhibit E.coli. endogenous transcription and hinder E.coli. growth. iGEM16_Imperial_College has registered a so-called T7 gp2 (BBa_K1893019), but strangely, it's not the same thing as the T7 gp2 we use, whose coding sequence is got from NCBI, and it's true that the attributes of their gp2 are totally different from ours.

Experimental Results

Gp2 was eliminated by us because gp5.7 is a better choice. For more details, please visit https://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K3790050
