SpyTagged sfGFP

JUMP OC part sfGFP (BBa_I746916) with SpyTag fused to each end

This part is not compatible with BioBrick RFC10 assembly but is compatible with the iGEM Type IIS Part standard which is also accepted by iGEM.

Usage and Biology

SpyTag is a 13 amino acid-long protein that spontaneously reacts with the SpyCatcher protein (12.3 kDa). Together they form an intermolecular isopeptide bond. This provides an alternative to His-tag purification techniques. Insertion of either the SpyTag or the SpyCatcher sequence into a recombinant protein will allow its purification.

Design

This is a type OC part, so it combines the 5' fusion site of a type O part with the 3' fusion site of a type C part. This was done so that this construct fits in the expression cassette with the rest of our modular proteins, as the TU for this protein part has fewer parts than the others.

The 5' fusion site starts with GCC encoding alanine so that the SpyTag starts in line, this works with the type N parts we have designed. Since it is the last protein part in the ORF, we end with a double stop and then the standard JUMP type C 3' fusion site.
