DARPin-E01

Natural protein ankyrin repeat (AR) molecules are motifs that can be found commonly in proteins (Bork 1993). These motifs mediate protein-protein interactions suggesting that AR proteins can be used for designing new binding molecules. Design of structural scaffolds with consensus regions and randomized positions of interacting residues leads to improved biophysical characteristics of targeting molecules (Binz et al. 2003) (Kohl et al. 2003).

The repetitive nature of the ankyrin proteins allows modifications in their variable and modular binding surface. Therefore, consensus sequences of natural ankyrin proteins have been used to design novel and stable scaffolds for binding proteins.

Designed Ankyrin Repeat Proteins (DARPins) are well expressed, monomeric in solution, thermodynamically stable and have the ability to fold fast. In the publication of (Steiner et al. 2008) screening libraries were created by using the signal recognition particle (SRP) translocation pathway for phage display. The selected DARPin E_01 has very high affinities to the target protein ErbB1 and can be used as a potential targeting molecule for our approach by fusing the DARPin to N-terminal VP proteins. Our designed ankyrin repeat protein consists of three internal binding repeats and the C-and N-terminal capping repeats. Each internal repeat module comprises one beta-turn and two hydrophobic alpha helices. The potential interaction residues are located in the beta-turn and the first alpha helix of the AR-proteins.

CMV

CMV promoter is derived from human Cytomegalovirus, which belongs to Herpesvirus group. All family members share the ability to remain in latent stage in the human body. CMV is located upstream of immediate-early gene. However, CMV promoter is an example of widely used promoters and is present in mammalian expression vectors. The advantage of CMV is the high-level constitutive expression in mostly all human tissues [Fitzsimons et al., 2002].

Middle Linker ( Gly-Gly-Ser-Gly)x2

(BBa_K243005)

This part is a linker, it can be used to connect two parts and add additional space between them. That can be necessary to avoid interactions between these parts.

Capsid

(BBa_K404006)

The AAV capsid consists of 60 capsid protein subunits. The three cap proteins VP1, VP2, and VP3 are encoded in an overlapping reading frame. Arranged in a stoichiometric ratio of 1:1:10, they form an icosahedral symmetry. The mRNA encoding for the cap proteins is transcribed from p40 and alternative spliced to minor and major products. Alternative splicing and translation initiation of VP2 at a nonconventional ACG initiation codon promote the expression of VP1, VP2 and VP3. The VP proteins share a common C terminus and stop codon, but begin with a different start codon. The N termini of VP1 and VP2 play important roles in infection and contain motifs that are highly homologous to a phospholipase A2 (PLA2) domain and nuclear localization signals (BR)(+).

ViralBrick 587-KO empty

(BBa_K4004210)
The primary receptor of AAV-2 is the heparan sulfate proteoglycan (HSPG) receptor (Perabo et al. 2006). Its binding motif consists of five amino-acids located on the capsid surface: R484/R487, K532, R585/587. (Trepel et al. 2009). The positively charged arginine residues interact with the HSPGs' negatively charged acid residues. Opie et al. have shown that two point mutations (R585A and R588A) are sufficient to eliminate the heparin binding affinity in AAV2. (Opie et al. 2003). This ViralBrick has been created to introduce this knockout into other constructs. The biobricks with containing this knockout are annotated with „HSPG-ko“.
