J23100-B0030-array(targeting pirA/B)-B0015-J23106-B0034-aca2-B0015

Biology

This part was designed as an element of type I CRISPR/Cas system, in which the array contains several designed spacers to target pirA/B gene and repeats derived from Vibrio parahaemolyticus FOC_022 (1) that could be recognized and handled by Cas proteins.

Some bacteria can not only encode anti-CRISPR protein (Acr) to inactivate the CRISPR/Cas system, but also encode anti-CRISPR-associated protein (Aca), which is the repressor of acr operon. Aca2 is one of the Aca family discovered with various anti-CRISPRs (2). The pathogen of AHPND, the Vibrio parahaemolyticus that can secret toxin PirA and PirB may also harbor acr and aca2 in the genome (3).

Usage and design

The sequence of array (BBa_K4195023) and aca2 (BBa_K4195028) were linked by overlap-extension PCR (OE-PCR), the product of which after being digested was then assembled into vector pUC57-simple to construct this composite part.

Characterization

Overlap-extension PCR (OE-PCR) for constructing the composite part

The sequence of array and aca2 were linked by OE-PCR. Target bands (1056 bp) can be observed at the position around 1000 bp (Fig. 1).

Identification

When constructing this circuit, colony PCR and gene sequencing were used to verify that the transformatants were correct. Target bands (1110 bp) can be observed at the position around 1000 bp(Fig. 2).
