pirA_i

This sequence is a conserved region of toxin gene pirA(1). It’s used as the detection target of RENDR system.

Biology

Ribozyme ENabled Detection of RNA (RENDR)
RENDR is a high-performing, plug-and-play RNA-sensing platform(1). RENDR utilizes a split variant of the Tetrahymena thermophila ribozyme by synthetically splitting it into two non-functional fragments (Fig. 1). Two fragments are each appended with designed RNA guide sequences, which can interact with the RNA input of interest. The split ribozyme is then inserted within a desired gene output. When bound with the RNA input, two transcribed split ribozyme fragments are triggered to self-splice and thus the intact transcript of the protein output will form.

Usage and Design

This part is used as the target of the RENDR detection system. For toxin pirA, we designed BBa_K4195141, BBa_K4195142, BBa_K4195145, BBa_K4195146, BBa_K4195156, BBa_K4195157, BBa_K4195160, BBa_K4195161, BBa_K4195168, BBa_K4195169, BBa_K4195172, BBa_K4195173. Other related parts are as following: BBa_K4195151, BBa_K4195183, BBa_K4195184, BBa_K4195185, BBa_K4195186.
